Tl the contact owns a 2003 Infiniti I35. While driving between 35-40 mph, the vehicle decelerated without warning.

Driving on highway @55mph when engine stopped functioning. Lost power steering and power brakes and careened off the road almost hitting a house. When I went to start the engine it had great difficulty ( took about 30 seconds ) when it finally started the service engine soon, tcs and slip lights were on. Took car to mechanic and was told that the crank angle sensor and cam position sensor is faulty but Nissan and govt. Failed to add the proper VIN numbers to the recall because this is the 30th car he's seen with the exact same problem and he knew immediately what it was when he saw the combination of indicator lights and vehicle problems.
I was driving on the parkway with my family and I was traveling at approx 60 mph. Out of no where a tcs and abs light came on the I decreased to 5 mph without warning and couldn't go faster. I had my foot all the way down to the pedal and vehicle wouldn't drive. This appears to be a camshaft sensor issue from what I see. There was a recall on this issue but I'm being told my vehicle was not an affected car. Others have all had the same happen with this same vehicle and I find it strange that because our VIN numbers weren't recalled that we are out of luck. I have brought my car to the dealer twice and they can't figure out the problem. I am so frustrated with this whole situation.
