Consumer Description

IN THE PAST 6 MONTHS, I HAVE EXPERIENCE THE CAR SHUTTING DOWN WHEN THE CAR IS IDLE, AT A STOP, OR DURING MOVEMENT A LOW SPEEDS SUCH AS MAKING LEFT OR RIGHT TURN. I HAVE HAD DIFFERENT MECHANICS LOOKED AT THIS ISSUE, BUT NEITHER ONE WAS ABLE TO PIN POINT THE ISSUE. THEY HAVE RESET THE 'SERVICE ENGINE' LIGHT SO MANY TIMES, BUT THIS ISSUE KEEPS RETURNING. RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE ON THE INTERNET, I FOUND A RECALL ON NISSAN SENTRA THAT SEEM TO HAVE THE SAME EXPERIENCE AS I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING (01V357 AND 03V455). I CALLED NISSAN FOR DETAILS ON THIS ISSUE AND THEY EXPLAINED THAT MY VIN NUMBER WAS NOT IN THE LIST OF RECALL VEHICLES. I FILED A CASE WITH NISSAN (CASE# 11305573) HOWEVER, I WOULD LIKE TO BRING THIS ISSUE TO YOUR ATTENTION SINCE IT MIGHT CAUSE INJURIES TO OTHERS WHEN THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF WITHOUT WARNING. I BELIEVE MY VEHICLES WITH SIMILAR VIN SHOULD ALSO BE CHECKED FOR FAULTY ECU AND/OR WIRE SENSOR. *TR
