Defect description

Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain air bag inflator replacement service parts that may have been installed as part of a theft or collision repair.

ODI #11462932

Incident: April 30, 2022 · Filed: May 1, 2022

Over the last 6 to 8 months, the 2006 M45 stalls intermittently. Most of the time (7 out of 10) it would stall when I stopped at a light (or a stop sign). The engine would shut off, all the indicator lights would come on, and I would put it in park and re-start, and it would continue to operate fine. The other three times or so, the car would randomly shut down while driving (both times in the city at 30 mph or so), and the same procedure to restart. Midas Muffler (3 different locations) did not detect any error codes in any of the occasions, and since it was happening intermittently, they could not duplicate it. In atleast 3 or 4 of the events, I had another passenger in the car who observed it.

Incident: April 2, 2020 · Filed: April 2, 2020

THE CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR AND/OR CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR CONTINUE TO FAIL EVEN AFTER BEING REPLACED WITH NEW INFINITI/NISSAN OEM PARTS. ALMOST EVERY TIME I START THE CAR IT WILL CONTINUE TO TURN OVER FOR ABOUT 15 SECONDS THEN STOP. I USUALLY HAVE TO GO THROUGH THIS PROCESS 3 OR 4 TIMES AND EVENTUALLY IT WILL START WITH THE SLP AND VDC LIGHTS ON, BUT THATS NOT THE SCARY OR DANGEROUS PART OF IT. THE DANGEROUS PART OF THIS ISSUE IS WHEN IVE BEEN ON THE HIGHWAY WITH TRAFFIC GOING 70 MPH AND THE ENGINES DIES AND COMPLETELY TURNS OFF WHILE IN THE MIDDLE LANE OF A 5 LANE HIGHWAY WHERE I WAS NOT ABLE TO MOVE OVER TO ONE SHOULDER OR THE OTHER. I CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP ON AN URBAN FREEWAY IN THE MIDDLE LANE WITH TRAFFIC TRAVELING AT LEAST 70 MPH BESIDE ME. THE HIGHWAY INCIDENTS HAPPENED 3 TIMES. THE OTHER 2 TIMES I WAS SO PARANOID OF IT HAPPENING AGAIN THAT I WAS IN THE RIGHT LANE AND JUST PULLED ONTO THE SHOULDER WHEN THE CAR DIED. I DO NOT DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY ANYMORE WHICH IS A SHAME BECAUSE THA''S WHAT THAT CAR WAS MADE FOR. OTHER DANGEROUS INCIDENTS WERE CAR DYING AS I WAS ENTERING INTERSECTION ON A LEFT TURN WITH ON COMING TRAFFIC APPROACHING, CAR DYING AT A RED AFTER TURNING GREEN WITH TRAFFIC APPROACHING FROM BEHIND, CAR DYING WHEN APPROACHING STOPPED TRAFFIC WITHOUT POWER BRAKES. THOSE ARE A FEW EXAMPLES. THE CAR HAS DIED MANY MORE TIMES IN SITUATIONS THAT WERE NOT AS DANGEROUS SUCH AS A RESIDENTIAL STREET, ETC. AGAIN AS I STATED EARLIER THAT ALL 3 OF MY CARS SENSORS HAVE BEEN REPLACE WITH NEW OEM PARTS BUT THE PROBLEM CONTINUES TO HAPPEN. THERE ARE MANY OF THE SAME COMPLAINT FROM OTHER PEOPLE ON THE INTERNET SO THIS IS OBVIOUSLY NOT A ONE OFF PROBLEM WITH JUST MY CAR. THANK YOU.
