Most Reliable Car I've Owned

It is my second new Murano lease. I love this car so much !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sleek, modern styling. Transmission behavior + Steering and handling + Ride stability + Seat comfort and support + Performance all the best. I wish Murano hase even more luxury, like mirror turn signals, rearview camera, bluetooth hands free phone capability and +++++++...............

Not so fast..............

After 5 recalls and seven trips to the dealership to correct these in an actual Japanese built vehicle, I'm very disappointed in Nissan and my local dealership. In fact, my dealership destroyed the finish on this car. This is why I dumped this otherwise great car. The handling, fuel mileage, execeloration & looks are impressive but it stops there.

Most comfortable ride.

The Murano handles and rides smoothly and the CVT transmission is very smooth. The amenities on the SE with the Bose sound system and heated seats are great. It sets up good not to high, but high enough for good road vision. Controls on the steering wheel make for easy access. Over all good vehicle. I would definately by another one in the future.

2005 Nissan Murano

Very impressive car. What I like about it the most is that it is very comfortable for an SUV and gets very good gas mileage, up to 25 mpg. Handles like a regular car, you don't feel any leans or delay from drivers inputs. Very easy to go thru traffic. Good climate control, great sound system, really roomy with lots of storage space, even has a storage for notebook computer which can be locked with the key. CVT somewhat robs a little power on take off but it's worth the trade off when you think about 20-25 mpg, when you on the roll performance is very good. Car feels very solid on the highway, I keep using Cruise Control in order not to speed too much. Haven't got a chance to test AWD yet, but should be good enough to handle snow and rain just fine. Overall I like it very much, I would only wish for more power (can never have too much). This is my 5th Nissan so far and would recommend it to anyone.
