Vehicle Speed Control Problems of Infiniti M45

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.

My check engine light came on and vehicle shifted info one gear. It was slow to accelerate and change gears. I had the code pulled and it showed p1764 direct clutch solenoid. I have researched the code which I found a service bulletin that has this code listed but it is not on the recall list when I entered the VIN number.

Tl- the contact owns a 2006 Infiniti M45. The contact stated that the vehicle had been intermittently stalling with no warning. The vehicle had been able to restart when the failure continued to happen however, a dealer has not diagnosed the cause of the failure yet. The vehicle was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 13v430000 (vehicle speed control). The contact was uncertain if the failure was related to the recall campaign as the failure was progressing intermittently. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, indicated that the vehicle was not included in any recall campaigns and to have the dealer service the vehicle. The approximate failure mileage was not available. Dyd.

Yesterday my wife was driving with my daughter and two friends when the vehicle stalled and lost all power while driving on a busy road. They were very fortunate to not have caused a serious accident and all were quite frightened by the incident. The vehicle would not restart so they had it towed to a mechanic (I was out of town). Today I went to the shop where the vehicle was towed and spoke to the mechanic. We checked it together and it started up like normal so we went for a ride and the car performed normally as well, although several lights are now lighted on the dash (vdc off, slip, ras & check engine). Searching nicoclub and other forums including this site, it seems this is not an uncommon problem. This could cause serious injuries and even death so owners should be notified of this possibility.

The contact owns a 2006 infinti M45. The contacted stated that while driving approximately 35 mph, the engine suddenly stalled after the accelerator pedal was released. The vehicle was towed to an authorized dealer. The technician informed the contact that the vehicle could not be repaired under NHTSA campaign id number 13v430000 (speed control) because they did not know how to perform the repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the problem. The approximate failure mileage was 89,600. Updated 01/07/lj the consumer stated the vehicle shut off twice, when he slowed down. Updated 01/07/14.
