Issue with cam shaft sensor failure. Replaced bank 2 and now bank 1. This is a known issue according to all of the people complaining. This was part of a recall for 2003 models, but not for 2006 models. Car has 121,000 miles and runs smooth, except for the cam shaft sensor failures. It is becoming dangerous, because it is killing the engine when it trips and having that happen at 70mph on the interstate is a concern for injury.
Engine consume motor oil.
My husband and I purchased a new Nissan 350z in may 2006, and had since then multiple problems with the engine consuming oil. After multiple attempts for repair and no solution we sought the advise of a lemon law attorney. Since this time we have encountered issues with the attorney making contact with Nissan's attorney there seemed to be a problem with people returning phone calls, and nothing got resolved . Do you have any suggestion on how to resolve this problem.
