Consumer Description
PROBLEM BEGAN WITH ENGINE JERKING AT HIGH SPEEDS. THEN CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. CODES INDICATED CRANK SHAFT SENSOR AND CAM SHAFT SENSORS. REPLACED BOTH. WITHIN 6 MONTHS PROBLEM STARTED ALL OVER AGAIN WITH THE SAME CODES AND THIS TIME THE CAR STARTED LOSING POWER WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS AND SOMETIMES DOESN'T START. ALSO STILL HAVING THE ENGINE JERKING AT HIGH SPEEDS. VEHICLE JUST DOESN'T SEEM TO HAVE MUCH POWER AT ALL. EVEN THOUGH THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL FOR THESE VERY THINGS, APPARENTLY OUR VIN # INDICATES OUR CAR IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL EVEN THOUGH IT WAS MANUFACTURED DURING THE DATES SPECIFIED ON THE RECALL LETTER. OUR 16 YEAR OLD SON DRIVES THIS VEHICLE AND I AM NOW VERY SCARED TO LET HIM DRIVE IT. WE ARE HAVING TO PAY FOR THESE REPAIRS OUT OF POCKET. NISSAN BETTER BE VERY THANKFUL THAT NOTHING TRAGIC HAS OCCURRED DUE TO THIS. IF IT HAD, A MAJOR LAWSUIT WOULD BE IN ORDER. *TR
