NHTSA Complaint #10522181 — 2002 NISSAN ALTIMA

ON 6/27/2013 I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 30 MPH PER HOUR. THE CAR ENGINE SHUTS OFF ABRUPTLY AND I LOSS ALL POWER TO THE CAR. I WAS STUCK AND THE CARS BEHIND ME ALMOST HIT ME FROM BEHIND. I PUT THE HAZARDS ON AND TRIED TO START THE CAR. I SAT FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES, PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND IT STARTED THEN SHUT OFF AGAIN. IN PREVIOUS YEARS I HAD TO START THE CAR IN NEUTRAL BUT IT NEVER SHUT OFF WHILE IN MOTION UNTIL TODAY,6/27/2013 AND THE SERVICE SOON ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND ALSO THE TCS, SLIP. I AM NOW SEEING THAT THERE IS A RECALL. CAN YOU PLEASE HELP ME TO GET NISSAN TO FIX THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE THIS IS A HAZARD AND THERE IS A RECALL. THANK YOU. I WILL ALSO CALL NISSAN AGAIN AND REPORT THIS PROBLEM, AND I HOPE THAT THEY FIX THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE I COULD HAVE BEEN INJURED ALSO OTHERS AND THERE IS A PRODUCT RECALL ON THE CRANKSHAFT, TIMING CONTROL SENSORS, ETC...WHY WAS A PRODUCT RECALL NOTICE NOT MAILED TO ME ABOUT THIS SERIOUS DEFECT/ PROBLEM? *TR
