  Edmunds doesnt like Murrano but I do, great car for the money, go sit in one and drive it before you decide on another SUV.

  Premium Look, High Comfort, Excellent Features... - 2016 Nissan Murano
  By Tom Farmer - September 6 - 12:45 am

  Weve had our 2015 Murano Platinum AWD a couple of months. We auditioned the Lincoln MKX, Jeep Grand Cherokee, and Acura MDX, and the Murano was the clear price / value / content winner. Pros: looks distinctive, like nothing else out there, in a class of dull lookalike vanilla vehicles. Got a good deal; big discounts and Nissan incentives are available. Acceleration is good and the CVT is rewarding to drive; no weird clunks or gear hangups. You can stir the transmission as a Tiptronic-style virtual manual, although this is no sports car. Extremely comfortable seats and cockpit in general. Great driving position; the dimensions of the car, and ride height, feel just right and really pleasing. Back seat space is terrific. Onboard technology is impressive (adaptive cruise control, blind spot monitor, forward collision warning, 360-degree radar-guided camera view, etc.) and all worked perfectly from day one. Rear seats fold flat. Dash and controls are well laid out and easy to learn. Platinum trim level is pretty luxurious -- on paper the car could pass as an Infiniti. Cons: stowage space puny unless you fold the rear seats down; there was more in our smaller Jetta Sportwagen. Some expected options unavailable, like rain-sensing wipers and lane-drift warning. Side and rear visibility is terrible; if the 360-degree camera ever conks out I dont think I can parallel-park the thing. MPG is all over the place -- 27 on a recent highway drive, but during stop-and-go duty the readout goes as low as 11 or 12. Fit and finish is disappointing: some plastic panels in prominent places, like the front-seat footwells, dont mate well and the look is inappropriately cheap in a car whose sticker tops out around $46k. Some switchwork feels shoddy and low-rent, like itll snap off in your hand next time you touch it. And our new car developed a terrible dash area buzz/rattle before it hit 500 miles; our dealer dismantled the fascia and found stripped-out screws of the wrong size holding things together. Thanks, Alabama. Overall: beautiful styling, solid value for money, a unique choice on the crossover landscape, but while brochure photos suggest comparisons with true luxury vehicles, subpar assembly quality and feel/fit/finish mean you wont actually confuse the Murano with a BMW.

  Not happy with one thing already - 2016 Nissan Murano
  By Rrrh@ roadrunner.com - September 3 - 5:51 am

  I found a large hump on the front passenger side floor, after calling my local dealer they informed me its part of body style. I have to say who in hell at Nisan thought that was a good idea.

  Poor navigation - 2016 Nissan Murano
  By Gerald Davis - July 1 - 4:37 am

  The navigation is way off for distance and time. example trip of 266 miles at 4 hours 49 minutes, the navigation shows 324 miles and 5 hours 55 minutes. We called Nissan Customer Affairs, they repeated several times " the system functions as designed" I said your design is incorrect with being this far off. Ask for a supervisor, was told there is no one else to talk to. This is only one of several times we checked all are off. The dealer said there is nothing they can do. you would think a $40,000 vehicle would have an accurate navigation system. My 10 year old Garmin is more accurate that I use in my pickup

  I miss my Ford Edge - 2016 Nissan Murano
  By Stacy Peterson - October 16 - 9:10 pm

  Had the Murano four weeks. Handles great. Missing a couple interior displays like direction. Need to scroll through screen to locate it. Edge has a lot more little conveniences that I miss.

  Poor seat belt design - 2016 Nissan Murano
  By Chris - March 25 - 11:30 pm

  Ive owned my Murano for 2 months. Ive never owned a Nissan before but I liked the size of the back seat in the Murano since I have 2 very tall teenage boys and I wanted to make sure they fit comfortably. The front seats are also very comfortable and it is a nice ride. But there is one very annoying issue. When my kids sit in the back, they inevitably step on my seat belt thereby tightening it on me while I am driving! The front seat belts come out of the floor and there is no protection around them. At the very least, this is an EXTREMELY poor design and quite possibly a safety issue. Im also disappointed that Ive already gotten recalls on the airbags and brakes. Nissan is not doing a good job building my confidence in them, this may be my first and last Nissan purchase.

  Love my Murano!! - 2016 Nissan Murano
  By Brenda Patterson - September 8 - 11:13 am

  I was in between getting a Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited, which I previously had, or the Murano SV. Suffice it to say that I am so happy I went with the Murano!!! This is one of the most luxurious automobile I have ever owned. The way it handles the road is outstanding, not to mention the sleek exterior. The interior is so comfortable & roomy. The drivers seat cradles your body in a way that is so comfortable & with the lumbar setting its like a dream. The updated electronics with the Navigation System, Bluetooth, Bose system, Instrument panel, etc. is all so high tech. Im still learning how to work it all & discover something new each day. By far this is one of the best automobiles I have ever owned. I highly recommend the Murrano SV!

  Luxury without the luxury nameplate - 2016 Nissan Murano
  By Joe Schweickart - December 14 - 7:57 pm

  We were planning to get a compact SUV and looking at the Toyota RAV 4, Mazda CX5 and Honda CRV. My wife has a bad back, so we put a premium on her comfort. We went to an auto mall with all 3 dealerships and she sat in all 3 cars and deemed the CRV the most comfortable. They all drove well. As we were leaving, we decided to stop at the Nissan dealer as we had heard about the zero gravity seats in the Murano. She sat in one and the decision was made. The pros were seat comfort, more interior room, better color choices and combinations, luxurious interior that rivals the luxury brands and nice exterior styling. The cons were about $8K more expensive, lower gas mileage, little extra cargo room over the CRV considering how much bigger the vehicle is, leg room could be a bit longer.
