Most Popular Etrailer for 2017 Nissan Murano

Well, my second review this week and I'm sorry to say it isn't great. Delivery and quality was good but I may be sending this back. Since I should have thought about this I'm not giving it a bottom rating. I have a 2019 murano and we have a trip coming up and needed some extra space so I thought having this would be a good idea but our Murano is equipment with rear sonar and collision detection. With the carrier on and extended or folded the car detects a collision and is constantly applying the brakes when in reverse. Disabling the sonar gets rid of the noise that constantly sounds but the collision detection is still stopping the car. Will be going by Nissan today to see if they have any advice, I suspect that I will need a wiring harness which somehow disables the collision detection when plugged in, that's ok with a trailer but not this cargo carrier, it will not be blocking my tail lights or license plate so I wasn't going to install one. Unclear if the wiring harness from eTrailer will disable the system if plugged in and worse is I'm not sure if it will render the system completely useless. Product quality is good so if you don't have these features then I would recommend this carrier. It's solid and quite once mounted. Afraid to take a long trip as there will be times when you need reverse and backing up 2 feet at a time before stopping is a pain. If I can get this working I would happily give this 5 stars.

Product came ahead of schedule. Everything was included and worked as expected. The only problem was the stopping collar had a stripped bolt but this is more a convenience than functional. Replacement was sent immediately. I’ve used this several times already to transport my snowblower. It’s rock solid! One concern is the mounting bolt that takes a lot of effort to ratchet on every time. Time will tell if the threads hold up. Would have given Four stars because the broken part should have been caught before shipping but customer service was awesome! One suggestion. A quick video on assembly (not just mounting and operation) would help. The diagrams on instructions don’t show the placement of the washers that well.
