I recently purchased a 2003 Nissan Maxima that was maryland state inspected. I drove it for about a week when I was driving along on a busy road and the car stalled in the middle of the roadway. Luckily, nobody was injured or hit the stalled car. The car had to be towed to the Nissan repair shop. It was diagnosed with two defective camshaft sensors. I found out that this part was recalled under Nissan¿s recall program, so I called them to see if they would replace the part. They refused to cover the cost of the replacement of the part even though they replaced these parts before under your recall.

On my 2003 Maxima se, the "service engine :light" comes on and the moving vehicle stalls. My wife had a close escape from a crash when it happened to her yesterday. It happens when the vehicle has been in operation for a few miles. A scan of the failure code from the engine returned p0340 which implies camshaft position sensor circuit problem. Checking the internet I find that the manufacturer recalled this model for a bad solder on the camshaft position sensor electronic circuit board in 2003, but the dealer never informed me when I purchased the car. My vehicle has only 55000 miles. The dealer claims that just because there was a recall does not mean that every car from that model year will be fixed. This is a serious safety issue. You can check on the internet regarding issues with 2003 Nissan Maxima and you will see rampant problem and operational safety hazard with this specific camshaft sensor component.

I have a 2003 Nissan Maxima that stalled while I was driving down the highway. I was able to get the car restarted after a couple of minutes and I later researched the problem. Apparently, there was a recall for that problem (recall 03v455) involving 3 faulty sensors and my VIN fall inside the range of applied vins jn1da*1* 400002 - 515067. I did have my car repaired by Nissan at a cost to me of over $416 whereas, Nissan replaced two of the sensors. At this time, Nissan insists that my car and VIN do not apply. I had read on the internet that they are others with the same problem and Nissan refuses to correct their problem also. I agree that this is a safety problem since the car behind me came close to hitting me when my car stalled and the driver proceeded to honk the horn and shout and me. It is my believe that Nissan has not been diligent in their efforts to get this problem resolved and get this unsafe cars off the road. I would like Nissan to resolve this issue by 1. ) reimbursing me for the cost of my repairs, 2. )repair the other faulty sensor that was part of the recall that they did not repair this time and 3. ) repair others like mine that Nissan refuses to repair at this time.

My 2003 Maxima stalled out twice while driving, once while at a very busy intersection during rush hour. My mechanic informed me that Nissan had recalled the 2003 Maximas for a faulty cam sensor that causes the vehicle to stall. However, in typical fashion, Nissan told me that my VIN did not fall under the recall and they would not help me. My mechanic told me that the local Nissan dealership informed him that the part was on national backorder and he could not repair my vehicle. In the meantime, I could possibly be in an accident because of faulty manufacturing. My mechanic also informed me that Nissan has changed the part number, meaning that the part is the cause of the problem, which proves that my vehicle should be repaired by Nissan.
