  Extremely satisfied - 2003 Nissan Murano
  By agarcia1 - November 9 - 2:00 am

  This review is for the SE AWD with Nav. for the first 500 miles. At first I was so mesmerized with the style that I didnt realize the excellence of the fit and finish on this vehicle. My second surprise was finding out how smooth the engine and transmission operate. All features and details are excellent. The only thing that I would modify is softening the suspension a little, because it is a little harsh over pot holes and bumps. I rate this vehicle as a solid "10".

  Fun Ride - 2003 Nissan Murano
  By JJF - October 30 - 10:00 am

  I bought my Murano for my wife at the end of April, and we have been enjoying this vehicle ever since. Fun to drive, alot of power, and the CVT transmission is great. You dont even feel the car shift. Only problem is the windows rattle going over pumps. Only seems to happen when the windows are down 1/4 to 1/2 the way down.

  WOW - 2003 Nissan Murano
  By This SUV rocks! - October 30 - 10:00 am

  Was looking at an Explorer or a Honda CRV. Found the space and fun to drive in the Murano. Great highway handling with plenty of power and breaks makes my 42-mile drive each way to work is pleasure. Programming my garage door into the rear view mirror is a great feature. Cool gadgets and room for the kids, all in one vehicle. Was expecting better gas mileage (now getting 22 hwy / sticker is 25hwy). Overall very impressed with my first new Nissan. Used Costco membership on line and saved a lot!

  Nice Nice - 2003 Nissan Murano
  By Bryguy - October 30 - 10:00 am

  Great Car...SUV...whatever it is. My wife and I have to Paper/Rock/Scissors to decide who gets to drive it each time! Beautiful ride, great handling, could be better on gas...but its still worth the drive. Im 67 and I love the headroom and legroom. The rear seating actually works for me as well! CVT is a sweet idea. Definitely a headturner!

  Excellent! - 2003 Nissan Murano
  By johnsonjs2 - October 30 - 10:00 am

  I looked at virtually every SUV on the market and this one is the best combination of style and performance I found. It came down to a Honda Pilot (a wonderful SUV) and the Murano and while both offer substance, the Murano had style. It is comfortable, powerful, and in the SE trim eats up corners and handles nimbly around town. The price is also very reasonable considering all of the features and options.

  Fuel Economy Exactly as Expected - 2003 Nissan Murano
  By Barton P - October 29 - 10:00 pm

  We are a family of three and selected the Murano because it; has a reliable powertrain, nice styling, no third row seat (we didnt need one), good safety features and good fuel economy for its size and weight. This vehicle has performed well, no serious mechanical issues. There were a couple of recalls for seat belt issues and the addition of fuel tank safety shields. Some complain that MPGs are too low. I think economy is great for the size of the vehicle. We get 20-21 MPG city and about 23-24 highway. This is exactly what the EPA sticker says we should get. At speeds above about 70 MPH weve found fuel economy degrades rapidly.

  Must Have - 2003 Nissan Murano
  By Macran - October 24 - 10:00 am

  Have had my Murano for 5 months. Every time I drive it I am thrilled with its design, power, roominess, style, sound system, and comfort. Did have a transmission problem...but Nissan sent a team of engineers (literally) and took care of it...and took care of me! This car is a must have for anyone looking for the availability of AWD, the comfort of a smooth ride, and the style to bring everything together.

  Love my Murano, BUT!!! - 2003 Nissan Murano
  By Randy Selby - October 22 - 11:23 pm

  I love my Nissan Murano but we have been having some reliability issues. The car was shooting out smoke when I started it. I took it into my stone age dealer, terrible service, and they said it had a sludge problem. Of course they said it was my fault even though I change my oil all the time. Anyways I went to another dealer and they were great, they covered everything. The reason I took it to them was because the car would start making a funny noise when I let my foot off the gas, it sounded like a lawnmower. They said the transmission was going out. Anyways I love everything else about the SUV.
