 Description of the problemThis is a safety issue that affects all 2005 nissan muranos. The drivers seat support has a design flaw making the vehicle unsafe to drive, the flaw is in the design and construction of the driver's seat support. It makes the support support so fragile that it breaks, thus disconnecting the seat from the seat rail. This support will break during an accident, or suddenly, without warning, while the car is in motion. If broken during an accident, the seat will not perform acceptably as part of the safety restraint system; (the safety restrain system is comprised of the seat, the seat belts, and the airbags. They work together to minimize injury in the event of an accident. With the seat loose, the entire system's function is fatally compromised); aggravated injuries or unnecessary death may result. If the failure occurs while driving, the design flaw could cause an accident. In my car, the seat broke while driving at slow speed, making a left turn in a residential area. There was no warning, just an noise, and the seat suddenly was loose. I took it in for repair immediately, the mechanic stated that he has seen several of these recently, nissan is stonewalling customers on this, the repair is very expensive. Thus many are choosing to continue to drive their car with the seat broken, in order to avoid the high cost of repair. This represents a growing population of unsafe vehicles on the road. As stated above, these vehicles are not only unsafe for their owner/drivers, they also represent a risk to others sharing the road.
