2005 Nissan Murano SL AWD review from North America

We have been left stranded with electrical issues twice, we have had all regularly scheduled maintenance done.

Most recently the SLR Transmission blew. The local Infinity Nissan Dealership offered zero assistance in working with Nissan Canada to find a reasonable way to replace the transmission. The repair cost me $5000.00 and absolutely no warranty extended on the repair. Labour costs were inflated in the initial quote by nearly 40% of what the Nissan book suggests (15 hours labour - they charge $95/hr).

Got the car back with the check engine light on, front windshield washer not working - took a look myself and found both hoses to the jet detached, these were functioning when taken in.

Less than a week after picking the vehicle up there is a yellow puddle under the car, called the dealership and it is either coolant or transmission fluid. Will be getting rid of this for another reliable Volvo (XC90) ASAP. I bought Nissan because they typically are a decent car - if anything goes wrong you are on your own. I have been treated better at Chrysler as a student with a clunker.
