Overview & Reviews
For 2005, the Murano receives a rollover sensor for the side curtain airbags, and a new S model with fewer features and a lower price. New options packages and an Intelligent Key entry and ignition system are newly available.
- Sharp handling, strong standard engine, comfortable and practical interior.
- Continuously variable transmission detracts from performance, SE model rides harshly, no third-row seat.

love it / hate it - 2005 Nissan Murano
By Amy - March 15 - 10:30 pmI still love the look of this vehicle, the comfort and the ride (when it is working properly) However, I have had to replace the entire exhaust system, 2 wheel bearings, numerous tie rod ends, breaks, calipers and discs, VDC sensor at over $300, and I cant even remember all the other things. Now I have a broken drivers seat, rear wiper motor died, and another tie rod end. This is over $1,000. Not to mention the tires are replaced every year at a cost of $1,000. It is at the dealers every month minimum of $500 every time and I am sick of it!

You get your monies worth - 2005 Nissan Murano
By T-REX - January 27 - 7:33 amThe Nissian Murano is the smoothiest, SUV I have ever driven and I have driven a garden varity over the years. The body styling turns heads everywhere you go, the interior leather is the most comfortable I have Sat in and I have Sat in the finest,as a matter of fact I have a s80 turbo Volvo in the drive way as we speak and a benz both with leather, the volvo comes close. The rest of the interior could be a little more stylish but very duriable and of good quality. the controls are luminated with flair the sound is an awesome 6 disc in dash BOSE. The ride is like none I have expeirenced before and if you have never felt a CVT transmission, Thats just it you wont it glides,Handling is silk

95% solution - 2005 Nissan Murano
By philtrav1 - January 15 - 2:13 amThe Murano is a fun, reliable and relatively inexpensive cross-over SUV. Frankly, I like the somewhat unusual design. Ive had my Murano in Europe now for about 6 months and it gets a lot of attention. In the land of BMW X5s and X3s, Mercs and Rovers, it nice to know that Ive got a really great preformer with solid workmanship for a fraction of the cost of the other SUVs. I appreciate the looks of approval from the drivers of the competition.

A Pleasant Surprise - 2005 Nissan Murano
By Manny - December 29 - 4:50 amI recently purchased a Nissan Murano after doing an extensive search on mid- size SUVs. While looking, I hadnt even considered this vehicle as an option, but after sitting in it at an auto show, my curiosity was piqued. It has all the features I was looking for in an SUV (pick-up, size, speed, features), plus some added bonuses like lots of cargo space and tons of safety features. From reviews, it sounds like the reliability is good and the gas and emissions ratings (important in California) are pretty decent. Its got awesome pick-up and drives and handles like a car. I was interested in "pilot- ing" it until this came along. I was sold.

I was pleased until recently - 2005 Nissan Murano
By ds foley - December 20 - 10:23 amI have loved this car since I purchased it! I am in sales and live in my car during the day and had no problems until the past six months. It has been noisy for quite a while but after changing the tires and both hub assemblies we determined that it was the transmission. This car has 130,000 miles on it and is a 2005. Ive probably had noise for at least 30,000 miles. The dealer is the only one that can do the work and its expensive. I still dont know what Im going to do. Ive already put a lot of money into it this year. Im so disappointed. Ive owned a number of cars and have never had a problem of this magnitude at such a low mileage.

Worst Car Ever - 2005 Nissan Murano
By som2 - December 17 - 10:29 pmMy car from the time of purchase has only been service by nissan dealership. I have replaced everything from belts to last a motor. Now they are telling me that its the catalytic converter. Nissan should be ashamed of themselves for passing this pretty body off as car.

Owning a Murano - 2005 Nissan Murano
By D. Herron - December 11 - 1:10 pmThe look threw me off at first. But I drove it and fell in love. It rides quite comfortably and is such great fun to drive. Ive owned it for just over a year and never had any problems at all. It travels well. We have gone on several trips and been VERY comfortable. It has a V6 engine with a heart. When you need extra power...its there. I tell everyone who asks that I love my car and they should test drive one.
