problem #3

Apr 062005

Murano

  • miles
Battery and brake indicator lights on dashboard came on. Next evening (approximately 10 miles later), the lights dimmed and electrical accessories failed while driving down a 4 lane road. Moments later the car went into "limp mode" (less than 5 mph). I was able to navigate off the road, but couldn't move very far. The engine would run fine (while the car was in park or neutral), but would immediately go into limp mode when shifted into gear. Following a couple of restarts... the battery finally went completely dead and couldn't restart engine. Towed to Nissan... replaced alternator.
