| Manufacurer | Nissan North America, Inc. |
| Brand | NISSAN |
| Model | MURANO |
| Model Year | 2010 |
| File date | 18/11/19 |
| Component | SERVICE BRAKES |
| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | This symptom occurs at all speeds. When brakes are depressed, the pedal goes all the way to the floor. Brakes do not function properly causing increased stopping distance. This issue is a hazard for occupants of the vehicle and others on the road around the vehicle. The symptoms the vehicle is exhibiting are identical to 2009 murano's that have brake modules and ecu's recalled. This vehicle has been removed from use pending replacements of the same components recalled on the prior year murano's. The cost of the repairs is in excess of $2000 and should be at the expense of nissan for installing faulty components. This faulty brake system can be fatal if not addressed, all murano's with faulty brake components need to be recalled before it costs the lives of innocent parties. The expense of the repair out of pocket may discourage some owners from taking appropriate measures, increasing the risk. Trouble shooting other components to avoid the costly parts required to repair the problem is a burdensome expense for the owners and increases the safety hazards of murano's on the road. |
