Nissan Murano Engine problems by year

While driving the vehicle the engine completely shut down and an "engine failure" light came on, and the vehicle became completely stationary. Electrical seemed to be running. I had to put the vehicle in park, turn it off and turn it back on to move it off the road. A couple weeks prior, the vehicle was making strange revving noises that I am unsure if they are related. I was in the middle of the road, and thankfully, cars behind me were stopped at a red light. I often drive on the highway and this could be deadly...

On October 14, 2026, while driving my 2025 Nissan Murano, the engine suddenly began making an extremely loud, sustained sound as though it was revving at very high RPM. I completely released the accelerator and applied the brakes, but the loud revving continued while the vehicle slowed. I remained able to brake and reduce speed; the vehicle did not accelerate uncontrollably. I safely pulled over, switched off the engine, and restarted it. The abnormal behavior then disappeared. I did not record the actual RPM. Two...

The engine and transmission do not run smoothly. It hesitates, and it doesn't downshift correctly. The engine revs up and will not shift gears properly. It's jerky. Everything about this engine and transmission feels strange for a luxury car. Sometimes, I don't feel safe trying to pass somebody. You wouldn't know how bad of a ride this car is from a 20-minute or even a 10-minute test drive. It's something you have to own and experience to understand. Whatever they did with this car feels unsafe to drive, especially with the engine stuttering and hesitating the way it does. And I only have 7,700 miles on my car.

While driving down the highway 5/10/26, the vehicle completely shut down at 75 MPH. The dash went black, everything shut down, and the steering wheel locked. No warning lights came on. I immediately hit the brakes and tried to veer to the right. Luckily, I was in the right lane and was able to get to the edge of the shoulder. My son and I sat there in shock. A few seconds later, I hit the ignition button, and the vehicle started right back up. My son and I were terrified by this. We could have been killed by someone hitting us.

While driving my new 2025 Nissan Murano (owned for 3 weeks), I parked the vehicle and exited. I realized the car was sticking out into traffic, so I got back inside to restart it. When I attempted to start the vehicle, the dashboard displayed the message: "Warning: Key system error - see owner's manual" and the car would not start.
