Engine problems of the 2004 Nissan Sentra

While driving my 2004 Nissan Sentra (1. 8 liter 4 cyl fuel injected) at low speeds it has stopped running with no warning. This has happened 5 times over the last 5 months, with the last three times happening in the last two days. Obviously this is a dangerous situation. When it's happened I've turned off the car and waited a few minutes. If I start the car too quickly the problem immediately resurfaces. There is a recall for this exact problem for the 2004 Nissan Sentra with a 2. 5 liter engine. The same problem also occurred in a friend's car last year who has the exact same car, bought at the same dealership, as mine.

Mt wife's car suddenly died without warning. The dealership told us it was a defective crankshaft position sensor. It was a $589. 00 repair. I know that Nissan has had other model years with recalls over sensors causing sudden engine loss. This incident with my wife happened while she was entering a freeway on ramp. She and her coworkers were towed back to her office. The next day the car started right up and was running fine. I drove it to the shop but it suddenly died after running for about 3 minutes. Luckily I was on a side street.

While driving my car at slow speeds the engine died. This resulted in reduction in steering and braking ability. No accident or injury occurred though. Engine would crank, but not spark plugs would not fire, so car could not be started and had to be pushed to the curb to get it out of traffic. Car was towed to mechanic who replaced the camshaft timing detector and reprogrammed the computer which solved the problem. Old part was disposed.

We had problems in order to turn it on. Then car suddenly stop running in the freeway. We were lucky we did not have an accident. Then the light of the engine went on. I took it to my mechanic. He told me about the recall r0606 for Nissans Sentra 2004 engine 2. 5 lt took to the nearest dealer to have my car repair, they did not want to repair unless a pay for it. I had to pay because they claim that the bin was nat in their computer, y told them that I was going to complaint to NHTSA they told me that I can do wherever I want. So I pay 275. 00 dlls to have repaired.

My 04 Nissan Sentra 2. 5l qr25 engine is eating oil 4. 5 quarts in 300 miles due to a precat failure on oem header which when failed on deceleration sucks material back into the engine causing piston rings and inner seals to fail and can lead to engine fire. I have found this info also on other model Sentras too.

I have a 1. 8 liter engine (Nissan Sentra) and it is experiencing the same problems that are listed on NHTSA campaign 06v242000 for the 2. 5l engine. The 11/12/2007 is the third sensor failure and engine cutoff since June 2007. The dealership has replaced the same sensor each time, and I have been lucky to have been on fairly empty freeways at the time of the failure or I would have been in an accident.

Situation recurring: long crank time before engine turns over and starts. This situation occurs when vehicle has been running for thirty minutes or more and is turned off and turned right back on as well as when vehicle sits overnight and is started in the morning. Problem!.
