2006 Altima-sluggish performance-had to put 2 quarts of oil in car today-just had oil change two weeks ago. While driving up a slope car starts to jerks hard-pulled off road-cut the car off-took several tries before car would start. It has been doing this for the past two days...

My car has been diagnosed with a faulty crank and cam sensors, catalytic converter as well. Today I took car into shop because it has been burning excessive amounts of oil. I have to put as much as 4 quarts of oil into car a week. I called Nissan and they indicate that their are recalls for this problem but my car is not one of the vins recalled.

I purchased my 2006 Nissan Altima SE-R around 4/18/2008 with around 34,000 miles. A few days later, I noticed the clutch pedal was sticking down to the floor and wouldn't come back up. Before I could take it to the dealer, the car clutch gave up on me and had to get it tow to the dealer. Dealer then replace the clutch ($1000) after a few days, the clutch pedal was still sticking to the floor, so I took it back to the dealer. Dealer had the car for a few hours and then called me to say it was done (fix) after that, the car was fine for a while. A month ago, around 5/15/2010, clutch pedal started to stick to the floor again and wouldn't come up. I called a mechanic and he explained to me over the phone that most likely it's the master cylinder or slave that went out and needs replacement. Per this link ---> www.nissanforums.com/Altima-SE-R/112659-clutch-master-cylinder-trouble.html too many people are having the same issue and the Nissan dealers are pretty much saying that there's nothing it can be done, and on my opinion, this is a safety issue that needs to be fix. Nissan (mechanics) should know their cars and be able to have good judgment and say if something needs attention instead of telling us (customers) everything is fine, when is not.
