NHTSA Complaint #10344949 — 2005 NISSAN ALTIMA

I HAVE A 2005 NISSAN ALTIMA AND HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY CAR! I'VE TAKEN IT TO A MECHANIC SHOP AND IT WAS PUT ON A MACHINE TO SEE WHAT WAS GOING ON. AND IT CAME BACK MY CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR HAS GONE BAD. SO I WENT OUT AND BOUGHT ONE AND HAD IT PUT IN. AND I WOULD SAY ABOUT 3 DAYS LATER THE SAME THING STARTED AGAIN. THE CAR WAS IDLE UP HIGH THEN COME DOWN AND I WOULD START DRIVING NOT EVEN MAYBE A MILE OR LESS AWAY FROM WHERE I LIVE IT WOULD JUST COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN. I WOULD TRY TO CRANK IT SEVERAL TIME AND IT WOULD COME ON AND THEN SHUT OFF. SO I TOOK IT BACK TO THE SHOP AND SAID OH MAYBE IT WAS A BAD SENSOR SO I GOT ANOTHER ONE AND HAD THAT PUT IN. SO I'M THINKING IT'S FIXED WELL I COULD GET TO A VERY BUSY ROAD AND IT WOULD SHUT OFF DOESN'T MATTER WHERE I WAS IN THE ROAD OR ALL THE VEHICLES COMING MY WAY!! VERY SCARY THING TO HAVE TO GO THROUGH I'VE HAD SO MUCH STRESS CAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO TAKE MY KIDS WITH ME ANYWHERE I GO CAUSE I DIDN'T WANT THEM TO BE IN THE CAR! I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS FOR LIKE 2 MONTHS NOT EVER THINKING IT COULD BE NISSAN'S MISTAKE.. WHEN IT WOULD DIE I WOULD JUST SIT THERE TRYING TO CRANK IT AND SOMETIMES IT WOULD CRANK THEN MAYBE MOVING 5 FEET DIE AGAIN. AND THEN GETTING IT CRANKED FROM THAT SPOT IT WOULD MAYBE GO 20 FEET AND THEN DIE. I'VE HAD IT TO 2 MECHANICS AND TESTED SEVERAL TIMES SAYING THE SAME THING AND ALSO THIS CRANKSHAFT SENSOR CAN ALSO CAUSE OTHER PROBLEMS TO THE CAR. I'VE SPENT 300$ TRYING TO FIX THIS PROBLEM AND TO KNOW IT'S BEEN ON A RECALL AND I WAS NEVER NOTICED KIND OF MAKES ME SO MAD!! I HAVE A FAMILY AND KIDS THAT HAS TO GO EVERYDAY THINGS AND HAVING THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN A PAIN. I THINK NISSAN NEEDS TO TRY MORE TO CONTACT THERE CUSTOMER AND LET THEM KNOW. I KNOW I'VE HAD THE SAME ADDRESS AND WAS NEVER NOTICED! SO KNOW I TOOK IT TO NISSAN AND THERE TELLING ME I HAVE TO PAY 220$ FOR THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR?? IM LIKE WHAT.. THE ONLY THING THERE DOING IS REPROGRAMMING IT!! *TR
