I'm having the same problem, first the air cond. side fan was dragging slow, I tap on it and It would speed up. Now the other one is dragging and the car gets hot just sitting at the red light without the air on. I'm assuming the fan motors are shot and I only have 12k miles on my '04. May try In the next few weeks to remove the fans and have them checked, If that's the problem then I'll opt for after market replacements cause Nissan is sky high.
Without make model year & engine size.... Head gasket, waterpump, hoses, radiator, cooling fans not coming on belt to waterpump, thermostat, etc...
Running the A/C puts added stress on the engine. It is likely that either the cooling system is in poor shape and just barely adequate to cool the engine, and with the added load of the A/C it isn't up to the task of keeping the car cool. Or the cooling fan isn't coming on to help give added airflow to compensate for the added load of the A/C.
are the cooling fans coming on
If the electric cooling fan(s) are not coming on that may be the problem.
climate change ... the continuous coming of typhoon... and overheat!
The 2010 Nissan Murano should be coming out in the Spring of 2009 like around March or April. There will be a ragtop/convertible coming out later that year as well.
yes
Could be an incorrect refrigerant charge or defective pressure switch causing the evaporator to freeze and the air flow over it is causing the ice to melt and the resulting white smoke is condensation
I dont know about your specific car but its usually located on one of the hoses coming from the heater core, on the firewall, behind the engine.
Probably a faulty sender unit

A car is more likely to overheat with the AC on because the AC radiator is in front of the cars radiator expelling heat. so if the engines cooling system is operating near capacity for some reason the heat coming from the AC can be just enough to tip it over the edge. The engine also has to work a Little harder while the Ac is running which would not help either.
