| There is a recall on 2002, 2005-2006 nissan sentras & altimas with the sensor. the car can shut down without warning and engine stall. my car is a 1999 nissan sentra with the same problem and they won't fix it because of the wrong year. regardless of the year it should be fixed or i should receive some kind of compensation. luckily when i was driving and my car shut down i wasn't hit from the back. i am looking to file a law suit over this matter because i spent my money on this car buying it brand new and this organization just shoved me off like my problem doesn't matter. i use my car and now i am without a car and catching the bus. it's not fair! it's their car!*cn | |||
