Description of the problem	My 2004 nissan murano lost power while driving down the road and almost caused an accident. The transmission made a grinding sound when pushing down the accelerator and lost most of its ability to accelerate at all and then started lurching forward rocking the whole vehicle back and fourth. I took it to a nissan dealership and explained the problem ,i even left it over night so they could test it in hot and cold conditions. The dealer called me the next day and told me it wasn't the transmission but two drive belts,front right bearing and strut cap that needed to be replaced. I refused the work at the nissan dealer and took it to a (ase mechanic) friend who ordered all factory nissan parts and installed them. Needless to say after reading all the other problems other 04 nissan murano owners are having, i am still having the same problem. The car makes a loud grinding sound looses power and is rocking back forward causing the whole vehicle to leap forward if you let off the brakes. The dealer told me that without a check engine code they could do nothing for me. I have read several complaints about the same issue and worry about my safety as well as for others around the vehicle. I live next to two elementary schools and have to drive on the highway daily. Why isn't nissan being held accountable for their issues that should be recalls?. I have every service record for the vehicle with all scheduled maintenance logged with receipts. It seems like the dealerships have all come up with different ways of not addressing the issue. If this were to happen to me on the highway at speeds of 60mph it could cause a major accident,god forbid even life threatening. The cost to replace the transmission and transfer case will exceed the value of the car thus totaling the vehicle. Please help!!! I don't want to be held responsible for defects that could be avoided!

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
