Consumer Description

I HAD TROUBLE STARTING MY 2003 NISSAN ALTIMA ABOUT 3-4 WEEKS AGO AFTER RETURNING FROM SHOPPING. IT STARTED A FEW HOURS LATER. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON FOR A FEW WEEKS, THEN WENT OFF. ON MY WAY TO WORK LAST WEEK DRIVING DOWN HIGHWAY AT 65MPH WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL I LOST ALL POWER AND WAS UNABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AND HAD IT TOWED HOME. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT BACK ON. THE AIR FILTER WAS CLOGGED AND CHANGED. MY CAR STARTED AND I DROVE TO WORK 2 DAYS LATER WITHOUT A PROBLEM, BUT THE CAR WOULD NOT START AFTER RETURNING HOME THAT DAY. CODE READER STATED CODE P0340 CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR MALFUNCTION. CAR STARTED HE NEXT DAY AND WE CHECKED CODES AGAIN WITH CAR RUNNING AND RECEIVED THE SAME CODE. CALLED DEALERSHIP AND THEY ADVISED NO CURRENT RECALLS FOR MY VEHICLE. ESTIMATED $281 FOR DIAGNOSTIC, LABOR AND PART REPLACEMENT. *TR
