NISSAN ALTIMA 2005 EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING - ACCORDING TO WWW.NHTSA AND MULTIPLE OTHER SITES THIS IS A PROBLEM COVERED BY NISSAN RECALL 07V527000 - WE TOOK IT TO GWINNETT PLACE NISSAN FOR REPAIR - THEY SAID THIS AND ANOTHER SENSOR ARE BAD BUT NOT COVERED UNDER RECALL - THEN CHARGED ME $125 FOR "DIAGNOSTICS" TO DETERMINE THIS IS THE PROBLEM WHEN I EXPLAINED TO THEM EXACTLY WHAT WAS HAPPENING AND SHOWED THEM THE RECALL INFORMATION. HE SAYS THIS CAR VIN NOT COVERED UNDER RECALL, BUT ACCORDING TO RECALL DESCRIPTION IT IS COVERED AND THIS IS THE EXACT PROBLEM CAUSED BY THE ISSUE. WHEN A CAR STALLS OUT WHILE DRIVING, IT CAN LEAD TO VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUES PUTTING THE DRIVER AND OTHERS AT RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS ILLNESS. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM. HE TOLD ME IT WOULD COST ME OVER $400 TO REPAIR AND THAT THEY WOULD APPLY THE $125 DIAGNOSTIC CHARGE TO THE REPAIR IF WE OPTED TO HAVE IT DONE. SERVICE ADVISOR LISTED ON BILL AS C. MARK WYATT *TR
