Pros: What do you like about 2006 Nissan Murano?
Comfortable drive, nice look.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Nissan Murano?
Bad, bad, bad quality. In three months after purchasing, rear wind shield wiper fell off. After 80,000 miles (three years) driver seat broke - one of the supporting brackets. Repair is $1,500.
One month later while driving on the highway during extremely heavy rain, front wind shield stopped working. Turned out to be that it was broken mechanical lever that drives the wipers. Cost of repair is not high but very dangerous situation for the driver and passengers.
2006 Nissan Murano Review:
Nice looking car with poor gas performance and highly unreliable secondary operations, not the power drive.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Nissan Murano?
Sound system good.
Heat and air condition system good.
Gas mileage could be much better.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Nissan Murano?
First Murano -- never again. Last month -- had to replace the gas tank - $500. Today -- the motor and track for the driver's side seat!
Wipers are not good.
First 65,000 miles -- pretty good -- now it's falling apart.

I put a k&n filter in. She runs great. I had an xterra and Murano has much better ride and horse power. Murano is great vehicle so far.

Beefier suspension, more horses & torque. Better brakes and lighten up on the grvw.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Nissan Murano?
I liked it at first but I after MANY repairs I do not like it. It is not worth the money. I have a Dodge Grand Caravan 190,000 and we have barely put any money into yet but my Murano after 36,000 miles lets just say the expenses for repairs are adding up and I have extended warranty. Latest event was I was driving home when I hear a loud sound and I skid off road, AXEL broke along with rack and pinon. Just got out of shop and it pulls to the right horribly and lots of vibration oh and leaking some kind of fluid. Another trip to the dealer. NEVER AGAIN NISSAN! I want a new car, this one is unsafe. Everybody told me I had a guardian angel over me that day because I just got off freeway (going 75mph) so lucky axel did not break then. Thank you GOD!

Overall I really enjoy the car, it has handled well in the Michigan snow that we keep getting near lakeshore on the West side of the state.
