2009 Murano SL (about 46K miles)

First, let me say what a joy it has been to own this vehicle- my wife loves it, and when mama's happy.....everyone's happy! We had our first issue the other day- the rear hatch made a clicking sound after she pushed the button to open the hatch and it would not engage or open. When I got home from work, I checked the hatch and couldn't identify and jamming issues- so I checked the fuse box and found the fuse was blown. I replaced the fuse with a spare and it worked fine. Fast forward a few days, the problem just recurred.

I've searched the forums and even looked in AllData Pro for any TSB's or recalls with no luck. If someone could give me a little guidance on this problem, it would be greatly appreciated!!!

Thanks!

Our local dealer service tech told me they're replaced a few of the "popper" solenoids on the newer Muranos. I'd start there... Since it's still under warranty, I'd recommend popping in on the dealer.

We've replaced several rear hatch actuators on the Murano's at our dealership. Not overly uncommon. Ask your local dealership to run a GRT and get it covered under warranty for you.
