Pros: What do you like about 2006 Nissan Murano?
I liked it at first but I after MANY repairs I do not like it. It is not worth the money. I have a Dodge Grand Caravan 190,000 and we have barely put any money into yet but my Murano after 36,000 miles lets just say the expenses for repairs are adding up and I have extended warranty. Latest event was I was driving home when I hear a loud sound and I skid off road, AXEL broke along with rack and pinon. Just got out of shop and it pulls to the right horribly and lots of vibration oh and leaking some kind of fluid. Another trip to the dealer. NEVER AGAIN NISSAN! I want a new car, this one is unsafe. Everybody told me I had a guardian angel over me that day because I just got off freeway (going 75mph) so lucky axel did not break then. Thank you GOD!

2006 Nissan Murano Review:
We like the Murano for our family of four; it's a nice alternative to the bulky Honda Odyssey for trips around town and short road trips, but it doesn't get good gas mileage, even less than the mini-van! It only gets 15 miles/gallon!!
