Engine Shut Off Without Warning problems of the 2004 Nissan Altima

I was driving at 35 mph and the engine shut off, the brake light came on, although the hand brake was not activated. The car would not steer or the foot brake would not work without a lot of pressure. Once I got stopped and put the car in park it started right up. I have noticed hesitation at times like it was going to shut off. The car has 3/4 tank of gas and has been serviced regularly. This is the third time it has shut off at low speed.

Nissan Altima 2004. Has around 91,000 miles. Transmission jerk a little, like it was jumping into gear. Car shut off with no warning while going down a hill. I was able to put the car in neutral while coasting and restart the car. Three days later the engine shuts off again. The vehicle was at a light. This time it took several tries to start the vehicle. At a busy intersection it stopped again the same day but was able to restart. I took the car to a dealership (car is in germany due to military). They told me they would call me back. I have not received a call. I called Nissan north America and I was told that the car falls under 2 recalls. Both the valve screws and the sensor. I may end up having to pay for it all even though nna says they "should" handle it here.

One month ago I was driving on the expressway when my car, that had never given me anything but usual minor problems, suddenly stopped while running at low speed. I panicked, but managed to pull over before it completely stopped running. I managed to turned it on once more but it was not running the same. It appeared it was going to shut off when slowing down again. It did. Fortunately no one was hurt. I immediately took it to the dealer who explained there was a problem with the sensor. They could only recap a sensor but would need more extensive and expensive work to see if there was anything wrong with the computer. Two days later, I learned of a manufacture?s recall for my make of car. It was a sensor problem that made the engine shut off when driving at low speeds. I concluded my car had to among those recalled. Now I learned, the year of my car is not included, but the years surrounding are.

The contact owns a 2004 Nissan Altima. While driving the vehicle at any speed it would shut off without warning. The vehicle would sometimes restart immediately and sometimes she would have to wait approximately fifteen minutes to restart. There is a recall for the electronic control module (recall #06v242000). The dealer reprogrammed the ecm sensor however, that did not solve the problem. The vehicle continued to shut off without warning. The dealer stated that the crank and cam angle sensor should be replaced. The replacement has not been made. The failure mileage was unknown and the current mileage was 66,700.
