Overview & Reviews
SE models now include a manual-shift mode for the CVT, and satellite radio pre-wiring is standard on all models. The standard driver seat now features 10-way power adjustment.
- Excellent handling, comfortable and practical interior, unique styling inside and out, smooth and powerful engine.
- Continuously variable transmission detracts from performance, SE model rides harshly, no third-row seat, gets pricey with options.

Should have a mechanic as an option - 2004 Nissan Murano
By celejao - November 11 - 1:32 amBought my 2004 new. Have put on at least 3 to 4 brakes, and 3 sets of tires. Currently has 170,000 miles and is stuck at the dealership, was towed there. Right now needs motor mounts, catalylic convertor, front brakes, burns oil, a trans leak (so the dealer says, I do not have any leak spots on the ground), four tires, a belt: $6,000. in parts and labor! Really? I just replaced the CV joint on the drivers side. 350.00, an independent friend replaced it, probably double price at a service station. Nissan dealership is basically telling me to junk the car, so I will buy a new one. They tell me the engine may be bad, the transmission may need to be replaced. Dealership is scary.

Disappointing MPG - 2004 Nissan Murano
By DannyRay - November 8 - 2:00 amBad news first: I have been unable to get above 16 MPG city or HIGHWAY. This is totally unacceptable. I love the way it drives and handles. The interior is laid out very nicely except for the odd little storage below the radio. I love the exterior styling, still getting lots of looks. Im not sure if I will be keeping it, if Nissan or the dealer wont do something.

Could have been great - 2004 Nissan Murano
By Dave - October 29 - 3:03 pmThe Murano is a very good vehicle, unfortunately it could have been a great vehicle. Very poor interior design, the dash instrumentation is some kind of cream, off yellow color. It should have been a brilliant white. The Bose stereo is very hard to use, too many button to look at while driving, very confusing and not all that great of sound quality. Performance is outstanding, fuel mileage is acceptable. The roof rack is a joke, no cross bars came with the vehicle, Nissan wants to sell them to you separately!! Very cheap of them I think!

Slipped into This Like a Glove - 2004 Nissan Murano
By DAYOH - October 27 - 11:20 pmThe variable transmission takes getting used to, but the SUV rides amoothly. It handles well and if its like the 10 yr. old Maxima I traded in, it will do just fine.

My Murano - 2004 Nissan Murano
By Astonbanker - September 28 - 9:36 pmI bought my Murano in November 2004 and have loved everything about it ever since (except the mileage) I get about 17 to 18 mpg but for an SUV that is pretty good. I love the style, the ride and the looks it gets from others.

Murano Overall - 2004 Nissan Murano
By Kashong - September 27 - 2:00 amVehicle has preformed very well, the engine is strong and I like the CVT transmission. Below about 40 mph, it seems to go into some type of free wheeling and I find myself having to brake harder then I antisipated.

Great SUV - 2004 Nissan Murano
By bob1 - September 27 - 2:00 amI waited one thousand miles before my review. I am happy to report the Murano is all I hoped it would be. There are a few odd little things like windshield wipers that cant be lifted for cleaning unless you stop them in mid stream. But this is nit picky stuff. The vehicle looks and rides in spectacular fashion. No rattles, no problems and gas milage unlike any SUV. Good safety features with ABS and side curtain airbags and security system. The easy entry and exit from front and rear seems well thought out with plenty of legroom to boot. The 245 HP engine and the smooth CVT tranny make this a powerful and fun SUV to drive.

MURANO - 2004 Nissan Murano
By AnnMarie - September 22 - 10:00 amI love my car but think that all models should be sold with a sunroof and roof rails. Otherwise, the car is excellent.
