Intermittently, the vehicle restarted without having to remain in the off position for several minutes. The vehicle was towed to the dealer for inspection and remains for additional testing. A NHTSA recall, # 01V357000, was performed on the vehicle concerning, the engine and gasoline several years ago; however, the recall did not remedy the problem.

After running normally, my car suddenly quit starting, and left me stranded with my child across town. I towed it to a Firestone service station for repair only to find out the failure was a cam shaft sensor. The repair station then found out for me that my car had 3 open recalls which I was never notified of. I have now paid for another tow to get my car to a dealership to have these "covered" repairs completed. Now, Nissan refuses to pay for any of my tows or the bill I had to pay Firestone for "diagnostic services".

I took my car to the dealership to have the sensor replaced due to a recall. Prior to having the recall repairs done my car had no major problems except the service engine soon light would not go off (it has been on since 40K miles). Now my car stalls every time I slow down to stop. If I had an automatic transmission I would have to pull off the road to restart my car. Since I have a clutch I can pop the clutch to restart the car because I am still drifting. The dealership also tried to tell me that the service engine soon light was not on due to the recall but because the catalytic converter was not working properly. The service engine soon light no longer comes on, but my car stalls consistently. I will never buy another Nissan. I thought they were reliable cars. But after having to deal with the service department and having a service engine soon light come on soon after the warranty expired I have learned my lesson.

My 2001 Nissan Sentra SE 2.0 litre is in the habit of "dying" while traveling. If there were no shoulder to pull onto and restart the car a serious rear end collision would occur. Nissan wants me to pay for repairs and will reimburse me if the 2.0 liter engine receives a recall like the 1.8 and 2.5 liter engines did for the same scenario. What gives?

While I was driving down the highway the engine stopped running and the service engine warning light came on. It was very hard to steer while traveling that speed and to get acroos the traffic so I could pull off of the highway. I had to have it towed to pat peck Nissan in gulfport, Mississippi. They fixed the car and said that it was the crank position sensor. I asked if there was a recall on this and they said no. After I got home I looked on your website and found that there is a recall on this for the 2001 Nissan Sentra manufactured on January 2000 through May 2001. The manufactured date on my car is April of 2001. I called Nissan and they said that my car did not qualify for the recall. I do not understand if my car is in the manufactured date why it does not qualify. This could have caused a serious accident, not only me but the other drivers around me. Please take a look at this and see if the recall was overlooked before someone is serious injured. Thanks for your time. Kevin carpenter
