Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2003 NISSAN ALTIMA 2.5 S. FOR THE LAST 6 MONTHS MY CAR HAS BEEN STALLING PERIODICALLY. THE STALL OCCURS ANYTIME AT ANY SPEED. WHEN THE ENGINE STALLS I LOSE POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL CLOSE CALL POTENTIAL ACCIDENTS, WHILE TRYING TO STOP THE VEHICLE WITH NO BRAKES AND NO STEERING. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER BUT THEY COULD NOT TELL ME WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. JUST YESTERDAY THE CAR STALLED 5 TIMES AND FINALLY THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT WENT ON. THE CODE INDICATED THAT THE CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR IS FAULTY. *JB
