The 2009 Nissan Murano has 3 recalls, the most serious being a brake system issue where the anti-lock brake control unit can develop sticking valves, requiring more pedal travel to stop the vehicle and raising the risk of a crash.
A separate airbag recall affects the front passenger side: if the vehicle's battery becomes significantly discharged, a software error in the airbag control unit can cause the passenger airbag to fail to deploy in a crash where it would normally fire, leaving the front passenger with less protection in a collision. The brake system recalls, which describe the same underlying valve contamination problem, are worth noting together: a reaction between the brake fluid and internal components in the anti-lock brake unit can cause a control valve to stick, which may increase the distance the pedal travels before braking force builds and extend the overall stopping distance.
