2018 Nissan Murano
This year drew 15 complaints, which is too few to read anything into. A share of a small number moves too much: one owner writing about the same fault twice would swing it further than a real pattern does. So nothing is claimed about this year either way. The 2 recalls below are on file regardless, and are not affected by how many people filed complaints.
Generation 3 of the Nissan Murano, which began in 2015. Everything below compares this year against the others in that generation, not against a different car wearing the same name.
NHTSA opened a defect investigation into this model year.

How this was worked out
Every year of the Nissan Murano was compared against its own history rather than against other cars, which removes popularity and age from the answer — a common car draws more complaints at equal reliability, and an older one has had longer to accumulate them. A year is flagged when it drew at least 2.5× this model's median and at least 50 complaints.
This is a fault record, not a review. Nobody files a federal complaint to say the car was fine, so it shows what tends to go wrong — not whether owners liked it, and not whether it is a good car.
