2003 NISSAN ALTIMA Electronic Stability Control Esc Problems

THE CRANKSHAFT SENSOR HAS FAILED, CAUSING MY CAR TO STALL ON THE HIGHWAY. I HAD TO REMOVE THE KEY FROM THE IGNITION, PUT IT BACK AND TRIED TO START THE ENGINE COUPLE TIMES BEFORE I SUCCEEDED. THIS HAD PLACED ME IN A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. THIS HAS HAPPENED VERY FREQUENTLY IN RECENT MONTHS (YEAR 2016)--EVERY TIME I STOP AT THE STOP SIGN OR STOP AT INTERSECTIONS FOR A RED LIGHT... I CALLED NISSAN AND THEY POLITELY INFORMED ME THAT MY SPECIFIC VIN NUMBER DID NOT QUALIFY FOR THE RECALL, EVEN THOUGH THE SYMPTOMS WERE THE EXACT SAME AS THE RECALL I HAVE FOUND ONLINE.

I WAS SITTING AT A RED LIGHT AND WHEN IT TURNED GREEN I WENT TO GO AND MY CAR STALLED OUT. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND IT'S DUE TO CAM AND CRANKSHAFT SENSORS. DROVE THE CAR TO WORK TODAY THE CAR STALLED OUT AGAIN COMPLETELY SHUT ITSELF OFF. ONCE AGAIN HAD TO PULL OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE RODE THE BEST I COULD TURN THE CAR OFF AND THANKFULLY IT TURNED BACK ON. CALLED NISSAN TODAY SPOKE WITH A CONSUMER AFFAIRS SUPERVISOR NAMED [XXX] AND THEY ARE TELLING ME THAT MY VIN # IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL FOR THIS CLAIM ON CRANKSHAFT SENSORS AND THAT THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO FORWARD MY INFORMATION TO A REGIONAL OFFICE FOR CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND SEE IF THEY CAN GET THEM TO PAY FOR THE PARTS BUT IN THE MEAN TIME I HAVE TO GET A DIAGNOSTICS REPORT DONE...

ON JANUARY 15, 2013, MY CAR SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROADWAY AT ABOUT 40 MPH WHILE TAKING MY DAUGHTER TO SCHOOL. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND RESTART THE CAR AND MAKE IT BACK HOME SAFELY. THANKFULLY, THE PERSON BEHIND ME WHEN THE CAR STOPPED DID NOT HIT ME FROM BEHIND. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED WITH MY CAR. THIS ALSO HAPPENED PREVIOUSLY ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO. I WAS INFORMED TODAY BY THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP THAT A FAILED CAM SHAFT SENSOR WAS THE REASON THAT MY CAR WAS SHUTTING DOWN. THEY ARE REPLACING THE SENSOR FOR APPROX. $400.00. HOWEVER, THIS EXACT ISSUE IS ON THE NHTSA.DOT WEBSITE AS PART OF A RECALL. NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 03V455000. MY MAJOR CONCERN IS THAT MY CAR COULD HAVE SHUT DOWN ON 95, A MAJOR CITY HIGHWAY, WITH MY CHILD...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIRS OUTLINED IN RECALL #06V242000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING). AFTER THE REPAIR A MECHANIC INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND CONCLUDED THAT THE ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE WAS NOT REPLACED. AS A CONSEQUENCE WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE WILL STALL WITHOUT ANY PRIOR WARNINGS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED, BUT NO ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 75,000.

WHILE DRIVING THROUGH A BUSY INTERSECTION AND A RAILROAD CROSSING MY CAR SUDDENLY SEEMED TO HAVE LOST ALL POWER. MY CAR REMAINED ON. THINKING IT WAS JUST THE ROAD CONDITIONS. LATER SAME NIGHT ALSO IN A BUSY INTERSECTION ONCE AGAIN ONLY THIS TIME COMPLETELY JUST SHUT DOWN. NO POWER COASTED QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE OFF ROAD. TRIED TO RESTART MY CAR BUT WOULDN'T TURN OVER. WAITED A COUPLE MINUTES AND TRIED AGAIN AND MY CAR STRUGGLED TO TURN ON BUT DID TURN ON. MY CAR BEING A PREOWNED CERTIFIED CAR THAT I HAVE PURCHASED FROM LANCASTER HONDA DEALERSHIP I WAS NOT AWARE OF ANY RECALL NOTICES FOR MY CAR AND I AM A VERY UPSET CONSUMER. BROUGHT MY CAR TO BE SERVICED FROM THE DEALER AND THEY WANT $294.00 TO REPLACE MY CAM SENSOR AND CRANK SENSOR. I REFUSED THE WORK TO MY CAR AND WHILE SEARCHING THE INTERNET I FOUND...
