Consumer Description

TAKATA CRANKSHAFT AND CAMSHAFT SENSORS. HAD BOTH OF THEM FAIL ON OUR ALTIMA IN PAST 2 YEARS AT THE COST OF $800. WHICH THE DEALER HAS MADE US PAY FOR. THE CAR WILL RANDOMLY LEAVE YOU STRANDED AND WILL NOT START AT ALL. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON TOO. CALLED FOR TOWING BUT THEN CAR "MIRACULOUSLY STARTED" AFTER STRANDED FOR 1 HOUR IN DANGEROUS LOCATION. DROVE DIRECTLY TO DEALER. WHO RAN TESTS AND DECLARED SENSOR FAULTY. DEALER CLAIMS THE VEHICLE IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL... WELL I THINK SOMEONE NEEDS TO CHECK THE DETAILS ON THIS. OBVIOUSLY THEY MISSED ALL OF THE OTHER VEHICLES AFFECTED BY THESE FAULTY SENSORS THAT WERE MANUFACTURED DURING THE SAME TIME. VERY UNHAPPY CUSTOMER
