Some Nissan Murano owners report experiencing issues with the front skid plate falling down due to loose bolts and clips. These problems can arise when bolts are missing, necessitating prompt replacement to secure the skid plate properly. Additionally, owners may find that fasteners and clips are loose or damaged, which should be inspected and replaced to ensure a secure fit. Some owners consider upgrading to more durable fasteners if the plastic ones are prone to coming off, further preventing future issues. If the mounting holes under the bumper are damaged, repairs may be required before reattaching the skid plate. Proper installation is crucial, as ensuring the plate is flush under the bumper can help prevent it from hanging down. Regular maintenance checks for wear or loosening of the skid plate and its fasteners are also recommended to avoid recurrence of this issue.
