Description of the problem	I am the original owner of 2005 murano. I noticed a problem with hydroplaning soon after purchase, and have always been extremely careful and on guard when driving in rain or even when streets are wet. This would happen with brand new tires and tires that were slightly worn so the tires don't seem to be the problem, unless its the type of tire but its not the tread on the tire. The car came with goodyear eagle p235/65 r18 tires and i have replaced with same tires when nissan service department advised of tread wear. On july 22, 2013 i was on my way home from gatlinburg with daughter and 2 year old granddaughter in car. We were caught in downpour going through knoxville. I truly cannot believe we are alive. My car would continually lose traction and it would slide to one side until it would grab traction before going off the road or wrecking. Something is terribly wrong with the murano in regards to hydroplaning. I also have had the problem with the driver's side visor coming down and will not stay up since a couple years after i bought the car. I love everything else about my murano and due to hydroplaning safety issue i will not be purchasing another one. Please take this issue up with nissan before people are killed. I cannot afford to replace my murano at this time so if there is anything that can be done please, please help me take care of this issue. This is definitely a manufacturer problem. There is no doubt people have been killed because of this problem but was not proven because didn't live to tell what happened. What can i do at this point to prevent becoming a statistic and more importantly ensure the safety of my precious cargo? I feel lucky to be alive.
