  • Comfort and Quality - 2009 Nissan Murano
    By -

    Most comfortable long ride vehicle I have ever owned (64"). Has not required a trip to the dealer for anything. Excellent in all driving conditions. Would buy another in a heartbeat!

  • Noises - 2009 Nissan Murano
    By -

    Car has poor acceleration but after take off has plenty of power and fun to drive. Front brakes make metal sound sometimes when turning sharp. Have had multiple noise problems with the interior. Sounds like a constant vibrating noise even when on smooth road and different speeds. Took three times to dealership to fix noise in back because did not make it all the time. Now is making same noise in front upper passenger side. Did not make noise with tech. Will have to try again next time in Tyler. Pretty embarrassing when someone rides with us. Listened to it all the way to Austin the other day. Sunroof hangs up sometimes and has been worked on once. Very frustrating to listen to these noises.

  • LOVE my new Murano! - 2009 Nissan Murano

    I drove the Maxda CX-7 and even though it has the 4 cylinder turbo, I think the Murano has just as much "pick up" without the turbo. Mine has heated leather seats which I highly recommend. I love the stability control and the all wheel drive. I live where it gets about 600 inches of snow in the winter and the snow doesnt even phase it! Its quieter than the Mazda and the ride is more cushie with the Murano. I did A TON of research and gave many other makes a chance, but I am SO glad that I got the Murano. I love it!The LE has all the bells&whistles but if you cant afford that, the S is still a great car! Cheers!

  • An excellent cross-over - 2009 Nissan Murano
    By -

    We bought ours new in 2008 and have used it for about 40,000 miles. We loved it when we bought it and having used it for city as well as highway driving, we have grown even more fond of it. The ride is powerful yet comfortable and reasonably quite. It couldve been sportier, but thats just a personal taste. The interiors are great, especially the leather seats and the sound system. Theres enough cargo space for a family of 3 to 4. There have been no problems with the vehicle in the last 3 years, except for one of the electronic keys that stopped working. In summary, get one if you like the drive of a car and utility of SUV. Itll be a great ride!

  • AWESOME CAR!!! - 2009 Nissan Murano

    I went from 10.5 mpg SUV to the Murano (my 1st crossover) and I LOVE it. I have had it for 1 month and have just over 1000 miles on it and I know I made the right choice. I got it loaded and love all the gadgets it has. I seem to be getting about 22 mpg with a mix of city/highway driving. The Bose stereo is awesome and I love the navigation and back up camera. I am still getting used to not having to take my key out of my pocket to open the car or start it. I like the power rear hatch and the power return on the rear seats. I find the interior very plush and comfortable. The engine with the CVT is very quick. Great job on this one Nissan.

  • Best value in its class - 2009 Nissan Murano
    By -

    Have owned it 4 months. Love its performance, comfort, conveniences. Need 6 cyl for tow capacity. Good handling is important to me. Muranos is much better than Lexus RX. I gave it a 9 for fuel mileage, rated relative to its competitive group. Of course Id like better. People rave about the Bose radio. I think its adequate. Overall, to me this is by far the best value in class.

  • Nice ride - and my wife loves the Murano - 2009 Nissan Murano
    By -

    Im 65" and the Murano fit me better than any other midsized and most large SUVs - and I tried them all! The ride is very comfortable and the Murano drives great in the snow. The technology is well done particularly the dashboard layout. Fit, finish and overall construction is excellent. The 20" wheels make the LE the only Murano to buy and everyone comments how great the Murano looks. The only glitch is the O/D button. It is in a bad location - it is too easy to bump while turning on the heated seats or reaching into the center console in front of the shifter.

    Recently purchased murano SL AWD This Suv is so much fun to drive. The ride is so quiet. Wish they had included memory seats, for this sl model.I have premium pkg, tech pkg, Leather, and dvd Player. I previously drove a Acura Tl 06 . I wonder if they have an after market for memory seats.
