Description of the problem	For the month of august 2011, my 2009 nissan murano has experienced four (4) steering wheel failures that could've resulted in serious bodily injury or death. Hawkinson nissan replaced the serpentine belt at least twice in less than a two-week period in august of this year because it was shredded. Although the dealership had done multiple multi-point inspections this month, they reported that there was no evidence of any pending failure of the serpentine belt when they did the inspections. In addition, on august 8, 2011, the technician found a "pass side rack and pinion boot filling up with fluid from bad seal in power steering rack," according to the invoice. Nissan found a leak in the power steering high pressure line. Nissan repaired the problem by replacing the high pressure power line and power steering rack. They also bled the power steering fluid system and performed a front end alignment, according to the invoice. I do not think the 2009 nissan murano is safe to drive because i was nearly killed or badly injured multiple times. They need to recall the vehicle since they've attempted to correct issues with the steering wheel on multiple times with no avail. I'm afraid of them returning the vehicle to me since the mechanics obviously cannot fix the problem since it's most likely a defect that's causing the serpentine belt to constantly shred with no prior evidence of pending failure or wear and tear.
