I am reporting a dealer's refusal to perform a safety recall repair (Campaign R1710) on my 2014 Nissan Murano. The local dealership in Montgomery, AL has repeatedly failed to schedule this repair, which involves a high-pressure power steering hose fire risk. Due to a chronic medical neck condition, I have requested email communication, but the dealer has not complied. I am requesting NHTSA's intervention to ensure this federal safety mandate is fulfilled.

On multiple occasions now the transmission has failed to switch gears causing the RPM's to stay elevated while no additional power has been created. This happens mostly on the highway at 55 to 60 mph but has also happened on side/back roads especially when changing elevation (up or down hill). The repair shop said it is throwing transmission repair codes and that this type of transmission is not worth fixing. They would simply need to order a new one from Nissan at between $7,500.00 to $8,500.00 dollars. Great money making scheme for Nissan. There are multiple complaints of this problem for the 2014 Murano and there are recalls on Nissan transmissions from other years. This seems to be a significant problem with the 2014 Murano as well and should be considered a recall situation for which Nissan is responsible.

Service air bag light on dash is blinking non stop, in addition the "Passenger Airbag" light below the radio controls is always showing "off" regardless of having a passenger in the seat. After getting the Data read via mechanic the issue is pointing towards bad communication from the airbag control module and the OCS being bad. This should be a recall. As the repairs can cost easily over 2000 per Nissan Dealer and online forums.

I have done a lot of research on these Nissan Muranos and other Nissan models. There are recalls for this exact same issue on models 2015-2019 and I have a 2014. I have viewed many complaints and reviews that state owners also have problem with the CVT transmission. Mine is giving error messages and been acting up while on the interstate. It will jolt into 4 rpm and higher and stay there. This always happens on the interstate and has happened a few times on slower speed limit roads. Seems like the issue is mainly when the car is over 60mph on the interstate. It seems very dangerous and I know Nissan CVT transmission have been recalled. I only have 132,000 miles on my vehicle and many mechanics have told me that it should not be going out like this with this few miles.
