| Description of the problem | 2006 nissan murano defective drivers seat. For no apparent reason seat started to rock form side to side when making turns. I thought it was a loose bolt but could not find one. When i turned the car in at the end of my lease period, nissan wanted to charge me for a broken driver seat molding. I have noticed that there are many other similar complaints. In addition, service managers at nissan have seen this problem frequently. This happens from metal fatigue and during normal wear and tear, not be abusive driving habits. There should be a factory recall on this issue. |
