Handling
The Murano is better than most luxury vehicles. It is not as light weight as the Audi Q5.
accountCircle Nicole S
Luxury vehicle without the high sticker price!
Never had any problems. At almost 109,000 miles, it still runs like it is brand new. All of the features make it feel like I am driving a luxury vehicle. Very spacious inside for my family, yet it does not feel like I am driving a large vehicle. Best car I have ever owned!

Best SUV on the market today.
This car rides so smooth and is very quiet. It is excellent in the ice snow and rain. I receive many compliments on it and how roomy it is. I would recommend this car to anyone. I have never had any issues mechanically. I will buy another Murano when it is time for a new car.

accountCircle Stephanie B
It is reliable, durable and easy to handle and drive.
Out of all the cars I have driven since 1979, the Murano is my favorite. Quiet, smooth driving at all times. Sturdy, almost like being in a truck.
accountCircle James W
Great gas mileage. It has nice colors. I love the style
I like how it looks. I like the style of the inside. I like the gas mileage.
accountCircle Heather S
They should know that it includes multiple media player options, has blind spot monitors, and TVs for kids in the back.
I love the design of the vehicle, how safe it is, and it's comfortability. I don't like how the newer models are making it look outdated .

Mighty little SUV by Nissan
The Murano is a great crossover SUV because it's roomy enough without being a gas guzzler. The engine is a V6 so you still have the power behind the wheel.

Do not recommend
Nissan murano convertible, 2014. Power windows will not stay up: had bad rain damage with bad smell. Kids hit convertible top, would cost 9-10,000$ to repair. That is unreasonable

Plenty of space for whatever your need is!!
I have had my Nissan Murano for 1.5 years and have had no problems! I have two children so it's big enough for the car seats and still have plenty of room. There is also plenty of space in the back for groceries, ball gear, luggage, whatever we're taking!

Needs $4,200 paint job only after 3 1/2 years.
The car needs a $4,200 paint job due to faulty paint on the behalf on Nissan and they refuse to fix it. There are many complaints against Nissan for similar issues. This happened 3 1/2 years into the cars lifetime. The entire car's paint is chipping all the way down to the metal of the car. It is absolutely embarrassing to drive.
accountCircle Melody O
It's very reliable and hasn't had any major maintenance issues.
It's a reliable vehicle I just wish it had more technology. Also, I need more space.
accountCircle Shannon H
This car is not the best for long trips for more than four people.
This is a great car. It gets you from place to place when needed. It doesn't get the greatest mileage but it's good for its size.

2014 Nissan murano... Lemon??
My murano has had several problems since I purchased it 6 years ago. The automatic window control does not work correctly when I attempt to put the window up. Often when I try to turn the volume down on the radio, the volume ends up getting louder. And I have had problems with my sun visors not working properly. I have had to have parts of the motor replaced due to cracking. I am not rough or tough on my cars and take them in when I am supposed to for oil changes, etc. I have had worse cars in my life but for the amount of money I have spent on this one, I would hope for a better product. I do not think I would buy about her Nissan product.
accountCircle Carolina R
I like the starting system. It is a safety feature every car should have.
I rather have a newer vehicle. With better electric features. And sound system. The color is white I prefer a bright color or like a pearl color. Can only fit 5 people and not very big. I also do not think the outlook is the best.. I do like the starting system.

I love mad max murano. So pretty and nice.
This car works wonders for heavy travelers. It runs great and can also hold some cargo. Cup holders could be bigger. No major issues except shocks but I live in the mountains and my wife drives fast constantly. She hits a lot of bumps. Okay in snow.

2014 Nissan murano review.
Other than a quickly fixed (and free) recall, I have never had an issue with my 2014 super black Nissan murano. I have kept up with the maintenance at the suggested mileage. I have almost 90,000 miles on my vehicle and have nothing bad to say about it.

Pros from Owners

likeFilled Susan G.

This vehicle is pretty much fully loaded. I bbn love the reliable AWD, the black leather seats, and the Bose sound system. The premium sound system is my favorite feature aside from the AWD and reliability of the car.

likeFilled Rebecca K.

All Wheel Drive, Hands free Bluetooth phone capability, steadiness of the vehicle, heated seats, rear power liftgate, winter floor mats. Reliable, mechanically sound, holds value. Blind spot alerts, navigation system, push button start. Plenty of room in the driver's seat for tall people like me.

likeFilled Susan G.

I absolutely love my 2014 Nissan murano! I have had it for over three years now and I have not had any problems with it aside from doing maintenance type work, like replacing the brakes. The sl model has leather seats and a Bose stereo system. The sound system sounds great! The car rides really great on the interstate, and it has almost 100,000 miles. It is solidly built and pretty much an Infiniti, just without the fancy name.

likeFilled Jenna P.

It is very roomy, has lots of space for both cargo and passengers. It is a solid model. The seats are comfortable, the radio works well. It gets decent gas mileage. I really like this car, it was the one I learned to drive and took my road test with.

Cons from Owners

dislikeFilled Susan G.

It does not have a car starter and does not have a light on the dash to indicate that the washer fluid is low. The car starter would be fantastic since I live in Vermont. Those really are the only cons I can think of since this car really is great.

dislikeFilled Rebecca K.

Winter floor mats got somewhat brittle and are cracking apart. Hard to find inexpensive windshield wiper insert replacements. Cost to replace tires. Newer model years have different body style so it is easy to tell that mine is an older year.

dislikeFilled Susan G.

There really are not many cons to my Nissan murano. The biggest thing, I would say, is that you have to go slow around curves because the car sits higher up and has a lot of body roll. I wish that it would get better gas mileage, but I understand that it averages about 21 miles per gallon because it has a 6 cylinder engine.

dislikeFilled Jenna P.

It is kind of laggy. When you step on the gas you do not go very fast at first. It is kind of like a motorboat. Not good if you are a single person, it could get to be too big. Also, not the best gas mileage possible, it is only average.

Is The 2014 Nissan Murano A Good Car?

Overall it is a solid car choice. It is comfortable and reliable. Not costly and is great value for its money. Rides smooth yet powerful.
A J.
It has been for me. I have had no issues with how it runs, it is a good size for a family of 4, and big enough to move large items as homeowners (lawn mowers, home repair items).
Melissa K.
It's wonderful! I have the SL which is the top of the line, so it has great features, a Bose sound system, and is very safe and comfortable.

I have not experienced any issues aside from a flat tire which is not the fault of the vehicle, but because of driving over a nail.
Melissa K.
I have had very little problems with the car. Everything I have had to have done has been maintenance, like brakes and oil changes.

Is The 2014 Nissan Murano A Good Value?

The cost of my vehicle was around 15,000. Which is fairly priced for the car. It is mileage is also good.
A J.
I think I paid around 36k. It is a good value because it has lots of features, smooth ride. It has also only required basic maintenance and no major expenses after the initial purchase.
Melissa K.
I bought it pre owned at a very good price. I'm not sure how much they are brand new, but they're probably around $45,000 to $50,000.
