Description of the problem	I have been having problems with the cvt transmission and was told the factory warranty was extended to double that of its original offer due to many problems. I took my murano to the dealer to have the cvt replaced and while i was there, the dealership told me the transfer case was leaking also and would need a new seal but it was expensive. I received a call later from the dealer stating that my particular vin contained a transfer case that had no separate seal option and the entire case would need replaced for over $3,000. With very little looking i see that this has been a problem on the murano for several years and they have changed the warranty to cover the faulty cvt transmission but not the transfer case which has gone hand in hand with previous cvt's. (if it's one, it's both) apparently, if the case runs dry of oil (which it doesn't have much in the first place) it can lock up the entire drivetrain and render the vehicle un-drivable. The transfer case is directly related to the cvt and many of the failed cvt's vehicles have had cracked or leaking transfer cases as well. Considering the number of incidents and awareness of nissan with this issue, it seems absurd they not remedy the transfer case issue, especially with it being a potential safety concern. But knowing that the transfer case is unserviceable and a fully enclosed, integral part of the main drive train should clearly put nissan in the hot seat for all costs for repairs labor, parts, and any other related expenses.
