Murano 6-cyl

  • 100,000 miles
The power liftgate latch mechanism does not latch fully after 3 or 4 uses until the negative battery terminal is removed and put back on. Then it works properly for a few times, ultimately not latching completely again and completely disabling use of the liftgate. I brought vehicle to Nissan dealership where I was informed that the mechanism is faulty and posses a safety issue when liftgate doesn't secure itself. This is an ongoing issue and cannot put things or my dog in the back of vehicle due to the risk of it opening while driving.

Liftgate will not open from outside, regardless of method used. The driver's button, the fob, and the button on the liftgate do nothing. In the event of an emergency, the liftgate cannot be used as a means of entry or exit of the vehicle.
