  • Safety Technology is Behind Times - 2016 Nissan Murano
    By -

    If you purchase the 2016 Murano with the Technology package be aware that there are NO beeping sensors on this vehicle. In other words, although you have a front and back camera, the vehicle will not make a beep sound if you are starting to get too close to a stationary item. What a disappointment given that these beep sensors have been around since dinosaurs.

    The one thing that is lacking is the stereo. It has no bass at all. Big disappointment.

  • Murano-proof the Japanese make shoddy products too - 2016 Nissan Murano

    Edmunds have the manufactures in their back pocket so Im betting this review gets pulled. Here is the truth (remember its never libel if it is true). Our Murano has been the worst money pit of any vehicle we have ever owned. I AM METICULOUS ABOUT DATA and our Murano clocked in at over USD $23,000 in repairs (out of warranty) - specifically this is for the hold period of year 4 to year 10 (6 inclusive years). Things that went wrong with this vehicle (fuel dampeners, wheel bearings, visors, control arms, exhaust system is a joke, etc) are well above and beyond any car we have ever owned. Case in point - the common Honda we owned during the same period was less than 7,000. Muranos are akin to the attractive women that gets ugly real fast then needs a fortune in plastic surgery. I NO LONGER TRUST CONSUMER REPORTS EITHeR FOR RECOMMENDING THIS PIECE OF JUNK. Lots of cheap Chinese parts assembled in Canton, Mississippi..yeah, right thats a recipe for a quality vehicle. IF YOU BUY GET YOUR REPAIR SINKING FUND Ready. You are going to need it.

    I have had my Murano less than a week and I applaud NIssan for a well put together vehicle!! I am enjoying every driving opportunity! This stylish SUV handles very well! In addition, the Boise sound system is positioned well to produces a high quality sound! I think you will be impress with the 2016 Murano!

  • Luxury for Less - 2016 Nissan Murano
    By -

    We owned a 2016 Acura RDX. After 3 months, we traded it for a Murano Platinum SUV. We found a dealer willing to give us an even trade. It was a good move. The Murano has been designed with the user in mind; not necessarily for the computer geeks or engineers really into auto design. The Murano has a navigation system that is reliable, easy to use, and provides useful information because of the way it is combined with Sirius/XM. It provides real time traffic issues. It shows the weather in our current area or where we are going as a destination. It lists stocks that we have entered and wish to follow. Entering a waypoint on a trip is a cinch. The sound system is excellent. It has a number of speakers that delivers great sound from our SiriusXM radio or a CD or the HD FM stations available. There are various options in the dashboard display. A driver can find just about any display he or she finds useful. I prefer the one that shows the next turn in our trip and also displays the radio station current being used with the SiriusXM system. When the navigation system is not being used, I like the compass displaying the direction heading. The transmission is very smooth and acceleration is good. It isnt a race car but passing is easy and we can get extra power when needed. It also uses regular gas. The CVT transmission is much better than some other luxury brands. I cannot feel the car shifting as we accelerate. I have had some back issues. A primary reason for buying the Murano is the comfort of the front seats. They are very comfortable. It is a pleasure driving this car. It is a luxury vehicle for a few thousand less than others (such as our Acura) with easy to use features and superior comfort. No back pain with the seats in this car. Service has been good at the Nissan dealers we have used. I use synthetic oil and can drive 7500 miles or more between oil changes. The heating/ cooling system is easy to use and works well. No problem with this car at all. There is one thing I would change: there is a bend in the hood of the car that displays a piece of metal right in front of the window. We have a white car. The sunlight that reflects off of this metal is blinding. I will consider going to a body shop to add a different color and finish to this piece of metal that is uncomfortable because of the blinding sunlight. The car is comfortable, easy to drive, handling is excellent, the sound system is exceptional and reliability is superb. This is a great car. Nissan offering a Murano that is better than many other luxury cars at a cheaper price.

  • went from an RX350 - 2016 Nissan Murano
    By -

    I have owned 2 Nissan Muranos in the past I wanted to get another one, at that time the new style wasnt out and I couldnt wait so I opted for the competition. With less than 4 months left on my lease i made the decision, I went back to the Murano and couldnt be happier. Do not I repeat do underestimate this SUV. You need to drive it just like I did, Nissan did an excellent job and went to the max to Redefine.

  • I should have purchased the platinum - 2016 Nissan Murano

    I enjoy the SL version, however, I regret not purchasing the platinum.

  • Luxury Features Without the Cost or Cachet - 2016 Nissan Murano
    By -

    We purchased a 2016 Acura RDX and traded in a 2012 Murano to move up to a luxury SUV with the RDX model. With less than 8000 miles on the Acura in the first several months, we traded the Acura on a 2016 Murano. Despite the higher cost, the Acura did not come up to the features, comfort or performance of the new Murano. We traded the Acura with less than 8000 miles for $1.00 for a 2016 Murano Platinum model. The navigation system on the Murano is easy to use and very intuitive. On the interstate, the rest areas are tracked along with exits. The map shows a 3D view, 2D view with various options for showing the map view. Entering a new destination is quick and easy. The CVT transmission is smooth and puts the operation of some luxury models to shame. Our first trip was a 10 hour drive. The seats in the Murano are the most comfortable of any car we have owned—most of which were luxury brands. The lumbar support is excellent and the seat surrounds the body to keep the driver comfortable throughout a long trip. Acceleration is excellent, layout of the dashboard is easy to read. Mileage on the trip was 28.6 with most driving on interstate highways and using regular gas. Our only complaint: The NissanConnect features do not work well with an IPhone. Presumably, it works well with an android phone. The Nissan support line recommended only using an Apple cord to connect with the phone and the USB port. That seems unnecessary but even with the more expensive Apple cord, the NissanConnect system would not operate most of the programs. This is our second Murano. The technology has improved over the 2012 model we owned, the gas mileage is improved, and the seats are more comfortable. The first Murano went 90,000 without any problems. So far, the 2016 is even better.

  • Great Car-Bad Back up sensors - 2016 Nissan Murano
    By -

    Two things I dont like are Nav screen gets sun glare and the back up sensors are quite and only beep once. Other that those 2 items the car is great and fun to drive. I believe the price is well worth it. We purchase the Platinum AWD with tech package.
