2022 Nissan Murano crash-test ratings
Nothing in the crash tests falls short of the top mark, for driver or passenger, which leaves rollover as the only result a notch lower.
NHTSA rates the 2022 Nissan Murano 5 out of 5 stars overall — 5 for frontal crash, 5 for side crash, 4 for rollover.
Front-drive and all-wheel-drive versions earned the same stars, and the file holds a short complaint list with no recalls or investigations, so the paper record gives a buyer little to follow up. What a used example can lose is its standard forward collision and lane departure warning, which rely on sensors a careless repair can knock out of alignment.
Inspecting a used 2022 Murano
The ratings describe the Murano as it left the factory. A car that has been in a serious crash, rebuilt, or had its airbags replaced is no longer the car NHTSA tested.
Forward collision warning and lane departure warning are standard: on a drive, confirm each responds and no fault message appears, especially if the windshield, grille or front bumper has been replaced.
Rollover is the only rating below the top, so pull back the door seals at the roof pillars to look for sectioning or filler, and check the tyres and suspension for signs of a hard kerb strike.
With every crash test at the top mark, prior repair is the thing the ratings cannot see: check panel gaps and paint depth all round, and make sure the airbag warning lamp clears after start-up.
What NHTSA did — and did not — test
A star rating is only as complete as the tests behind it. This is which of NHTSA's four crash tests the 2022 Nissan Murano actually went through.

Recalls, complaints and investigations
NHTSA keeps these alongside the crash-test results for the 2022 Nissan Murano SUV FWD. They answer a different question: not how the vehicle was built to perform in a crash, but what owners and the agency have reported since.
A recall campaign covers a range of vehicles; whether the repair was done on a particular car is a per-VIN question. Check open recalls by VIN.
How NHTSA's current ratings work
NHTSA announced new NCAP crash tests and rating criteria in July 2008, including a new overall rating that combines the frontal, side and rollover results. It then postponed the change by a year: the new criteria apply to vehicles tested beginning with model year 2011, not 2010 as first announced.
In NHTSA's own words, its rollover resistance ratings “estimate the risk of rollover if a vehicle is involved in a single-vehicle crash.”
One limit applies to every vehicle here. NHTSA notes that the frontal crash rating “depends on vehicle mass, and cannot be compared across vehicle weight classes” — a full-size truck's frontal stars and a compact car's are not the same measure.
- Federal Register, 73 FR 79206 (Dec. 24, 2008) — new NCAP criteria begin with model year 2011
- Federal Register, 73 FR 40016 (July 11, 2008) — NCAP testing and rating changes, including the overall rating
