While accelerating to merge into traffic and make a left turn, the vehicle briefly hesitated, which has occurred previously.

Filed Jun 13, 2026


Known issue with sunroof drains clogging and leaking into vehicle. Could Possibly cause electrical damage. The rear drains are clogged and are not accessible without removing interior trim/headliner to clear. A consumer should not have to spend $500+ to have sunroof drain lines cleared. Unknowingly, Back floor board was full of water and car was parked for multiple days. Upon opening the door, the moldy, mildew smell was overwhelming. I had to drive with windows down. When I returned home,…

Four times in the last month or so, the accelerator pedal has stuck while driving. I take my foot off the gas but the engine continues racing, and the car keeps increasing in speed. The last time it happened I almost ran into the car in front of me. I slammed hard on the brakes to try and stop the momentum. I heard a loud pop and the accelerator eventually returned to normal, but it took 4 or 5 seconds. The local Nissan Dealer cannot find any problems, and cannot repeat the problem despite…

2018 NISSAN MURANO

Filed May 27, 2026


I am filing a safety complaint regarding my Nissan Murano due to a recurring water leak caused by clogged sunroof/moonroof drain tubes. This problem has now happened for the third time, even after prior repairs by an authorized Nissan dealership. Water repeatedly enters the interior of the vehicle, soaking the carpets and interior areas. I am very concerned about mold and mildew developing underneath the carpeting and inside the vehicle because of the trapped moisture. This creates potential…
