Used Nissan Murano for Sale

The Nissan Murano is by far the best vehicle I've owned. I've taken the car on road trips down the coast and through the mountains and it drove flawlessly. Even on the roughest parts of the road it was a smooth ride and quiet inside. The stock sound system isn't bad either. For not having big subwoofers and all the other components, the sound is amazing and the bass will bump. One of the downsides about the sound system is the screen used to control the audio and air conditioning is not used for anything else. By this I mean it doesn't have navigation, blue tooth, color, or any other features you would find in a car similar. The gas mileage on the Murano isn't half bad either. On the highway I average somewhere in the upper 20's and in town I average in the lower 20's.

I purchased the vehicle used from a local used/new car dealer. The overall appearance was the initial thing that attracted me to the vehicle, however, after driving it I also appreciated the performance and handling characteristics. I delved a little deeper and discovered that it has a 3500lb towing capacity, pretty much unheard of for smallish crossover SUVs. (I can tow a small boat, U-Haul trailer, etc., no problem!) Power everything, heated leather seats and an awesome factory sound system with subwoofers in the back. I've had the car over 10 years and 110k miles with no major issues whatsoever, only your typical wear and tear items like brakes/tires/belts/etc. Overall, this vehicle has been great, especially compared to the domestic sedan it replaced which had required a transmission rebuild at 60k. A couple of things could use improvement, however. Although having full power controls and heating on the them, the front seats could be more supportive and contoured. After a couple hours of driving I am dying to stretch my legs. The overall ergonomics of the posture seem to be better suited to a shorter person. (5'8 Or less) Some of the plastics on the dash have discolored unevenly from the sun, no cracking, but it does seem kind of cheaply. As well, you can see the outline of the passenger side airbag through the dash covering and one of the visors won't stay up anymore. Minor issues, but worth mentioning. Fuel economy seems average, not great, but not terrible. I get about 20mpg combined (mostly city). I'm not sure how that compares to other vehicles in its size/weight/engine.

We bought our Murano in 2009. It was gently used. We chose the Murano because we were due with our first child and it had great safety ratings. Six years later, it is still running strong with regular check-ups. There have been no major repairs and it has made 3 cross country trips. It is very roomy and I feel it still looks stylish compared to the newer cars on the road. The biggest downfall is the electronic dash. There have been a few glitches on the screen that are still there, even though all the functions still work, you cannot read about them on the screen anymore.
