| Description of the problem | I started to notice that when i'd use my keyless entry that the doors wouldn't unlock so i replaced my keyless entry only to discover that wasn't it using the panel on the drivers side if i unlock/lock the doors only 1 door aside from the drivers will unlock... My trunk will unlock selectively and with this model there is no other way to get in our out the trunk aside from the tail gate i took it to the dealer to get it fixed and when his response immediately was "it's your actuators, we get these all the time with your kind of car" it struck a nerve with me and i didn't get it done when i found out the cost is $400 per door that's including labor i then started to do research on line and i see forums of over a thousand 05/06 murano owners with the same issue that im having some have replaced them some have complained there was petitions and nothing has been done god forbid someone who doesn't realize this gets in and like most of us locks there doors behind them only to realize it didn't with something awful like a burglary or something... What if there is an accident and they cant get to the victim because the doors don't unlock these are worst case scenarios but this should not be common. |
