Consumer Description

CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR - THE VEHICLE WOULD HAVE A DELAY IN STARTING, SOMETIMES WOULD NOT START AT ALL. ALSO, THE ENGINE WOULD SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING AT A LOW SPEED OR STOPPED. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. DID INTERNET RESEARCH. FOUND OTHER OWNERS OF NISSAN ALTIMA'S HAD THE SAME PROBLEMS. BROUGHT THE CAR TO NISSAN DEALER WAS TOLD THEY HAD ALOT OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR GOING BAD. HAD IT REPLACED, THE CAR WORKS FINE NOW. NISSAN NEEDS TO RECALL THIS PART. WHEN THE CAR SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING, YOU LOOSE ALL POWER! POWER STEERING, BRAKES, ETC. IT'S AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. *TR
