The car was parked and it did not start at all.. Happened twice in one month. Had to be towed, took it to the shop and they didnot find anything wrong because the car was working OK. And this also can happened when I was driving my car. The car stop working no lights no brakes nothing was working. Took it to the shop and the same thing. The car was working again. Also I received a letter from Nissan saying that there is a problem with a part that doesnot let you fill up your gas tank and they said that they have extended the warranty for this part but they cannot replaced it until you have this problem.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 Nissan Murano. While driving 65 MPH, the fuel gauge began to fluctuate before the vehicle came to a stop. The check engine warning light illuminated.

Was concern about the seat it goes,up but leaks,down and ,rocks like it is broke, the airbag light keeps flashing and wont stop,jumpy accelertion, and replacing front brake can be costly. I bought this vehicle and according to internet by VIN# printed out no recalls, shows now I see it had recalls what can I do to get this taken care of? Driving down the road the seat felt like it was changing the height and I had to keep readjusting it, I then stopped and went to get out and it rocked. I weigh 100lbs so I could not have broken it.
From time to time the vehicle unexpectedly stalls. Engine does not die but power to transmission is lost. Vehicle will not rev unless it is put into park or neuteral. When transmission is engaged stepping on the accelerator produces no rpms. Vehicle costs to side of road and problem is sometimes remidied with shutting off the engine and restarting other times I have had to have it towed to a repair shop where I have been told there is nothing wrong with the vehicle.
The vehicle stalls while driving, I have had several recent times when I am driving down the road and the car completely dies and you lose all power, very unsafe as power steering is lost. I have read this online where other owners have this issue so there has to be a defect in the vehicle. I have checked the battery, cables, replaced sensors, and fuel pump so this has to be something else. My car is a 2007 Murano sl with 150,000 miles.
Nissan Murano 2007: faulty fuel level sensor, fuel level sensor harness is open or shorted, fuel level sensor circuit poor electrical connection. Engine light on (service engine soon warning light), incorrect fuel level reading. Also, weak engine mounts, right side engine mount and lower front between engine and radiator. Please advise if there is a recall. Thank you.
