2009 Nissan MURANO Steering Problems, Complaints and Defects

Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The tilt steering motor has stopped working. The in and out motor went out shortly after we purchased this pre-owned vehicle in 2012. Then, a few weeks ago, the tilt mechanism spontaneously tilted to the farthest down position possible. We then had to hold the control up as well as apply significant pressure upwards to get the steering wheel to return to the desired position. Luckily, we were not driving at the time of this incident, however i have read in some discussion threads regarding this issue that some drivers have experienced this issue while driving. Now the tilt mechanism does not work all together (in, out, up or down). We took the vehicle to our nearest nissan dealer, and they said there is no recall for this issue, and it is not covered under our warranty. I contacted nissan of north america and they have stated that there is nothing they can do to help us at this time. There are several discussion threads on the internet regarding this issue for the 2009 nissan murano. It is only a matter of time before this causes an accident with a potential injury or worse. Nissan needs to address this issue before it gets to this point.
