| While driving on the i95 the car shut off and would not restart at 55mph. thank god, i did not get into an accident and was able to coast over to the guardrail. i had to have my car towed to my mechanic that informed me it appeared to be the crankshaft sensor and said since it was a recall item i should have it brought to my local nissan dealer. i had the car towed to miller nissan in fairfield ct and informed them of my mechanics findings. they checked the car and told me it was the fuel pump and replaced it even with me expressing that my current mechanic already checked that. after replacing the fuel pump they called me back and said it still wasn't working. it ended up being the ecm along with another sensor!! i expressed how upset i was that this sensor failed why i was driving at a high speed on the highway! i am currently working with nissan corporate recall department because everything i'm reading is still indicating that the crankshaft sensor could cause malfunctions in other sensors in the car!! i'm not happy that nissan is charging me for the new fuel pump they installed along with the sensors totaling $1,943,00!! *tr | |||

| My nissan altima se 2006 has an issue with the gas cap is so tight that it is impossible to take it off without hurting yourself. most of the time i need to get the gas station attendant to remove it and he also has a hard time. on sunday i tried to get some gas and the gas cap wouldn't come off at all. monday the nissan dealership tells me that because of the plastic and spring design they have a tendency of braking and yet they replaced with the same type of gas cap. today i tried to refuel and again i couldn't get the gas cap off and had to go back in to a different nissan dealer. why not just change the design so that it doesn't brake? *nm | |||
