2006 Nissan MURANO Seats Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	822325
Internal NHTSA #	10360576
Manufacurer	NISSAN NORTH AMERICA, INC.
Brand	NISSAN
Model	MURANO
Model Year	2006
File date	11/10/10
Component	SEATS
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Driver's seat rear tube is broken on left side after 82 kmiles of normal driving on paved roads only, mostly highway. Both drivers weigh less than 190 lbs. Material strength / thickness is insufficient for the loads the tube needs to carry at that location. The whole seat (cushion and backrest) rotates up/down about the front and to the left approx. 4-5 inches when the backrest is pushed lightly toward mid car direction. This is a major safety issue. It's surprising that the seat passed fmvss 208/301 (dynamic front and rear crash tests) during dv and pv. Ok so new carefully assembled seat frames must have passed those tests, but isn't nissan also responsible to ensure the built-in seat safety factor is high enough to overcome manufacturing tolerances and fatigue issues from normal driving for production seat frames such that under a front or a rear crash event the seats actually do provide some protection and at least do not increase the danger to the driver and the passengers? This is faulty engineering. There are many cases for pre-2008 model murano with this problem on the internet and, i assume, in your database. To ensure nissan and other vehicle manufacturers design for fatigue, manufacturing tolerances and/or quality, nhtsa should prompt a safety recall. Customers should not have to pay >$1000 to fix a seat that nissan pays less than $150 to assemble in the vehicle, as this would be equivalent to rewarding and supporting faulty engineering.

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.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
