Consumer Description

DEFECTIVE CRANK POSITION SENSOR, WHICH CAUSED ENGINE TO CEASE TWICE WHILE DRIVING. CAR WAS TOWED TO DEALER, WHO SAID THEY WOULD LOOK AT IT. MEANWHILE, WENT TO NISSAN WEBSITE AND FOUND THE EXACT CAUSE. I THEN CALLED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND WAS INFORMED MY CAR SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED. I THEN CALLED DEALER'S SVC MGR, WHO SAID HE WASN'T SURE. I TOLD HIM I SPOKE WITH THEIR CONSUMER DEPT AND THEY CONFIRMED THE CAR HAD A RECALL PROBLEM. HE CALLED BACK 2 HRS LATER AND SAID MY CAR WAS FIXED. I ASKED ABOUT THE $65 TOWING REFUND. HE SAID TO CALL NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS. ALL OWNERS OF 2001 NISSAN SHOULD IMMEDIATELY BE NOTIFIED OF THIS DANGER. *NLM
