Over the last 6 to 8 months, the 2006 M45 stalls intermittently. Most of the time (7 out of 10) it would stall when I stopped at a light (or a stop sign). The engine would shut off, all the indicator lights would come on, and I would put it in park and re-start, and it would continue to operate fine. The other three times or so, the car would randomly shut down while driving (both times in the city at 30 mph or so), and the same procedure to restart. Midas Muffler (3 different locations) did not detect any error codes in any of the occasions, and since it was happening intermittently, they could not duplicate it. In atleast 3 or 4 of the events, I had another passenger in the car who observed it.

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

WHILE DRIVING AT 55 MPH, I WAS CHANGING LANES, AND THERE WAS A PIECE OF METAL IN THE ROAD. I APPLIED THE BRAKES TO SLOW DOWN. THE CAR ABRUPTLY PULLED TO RIGHT AND AND RAN INTO THE CURB ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE ROAD. I APPLIED THE BRAKES AGAIN. THIS CAUSED THE CAR TO FLY TO THE LEFT AND HIT THE MEDIAN 2 LANES OVER, SENDING ME INTO A 360 SPIN OUT, ONCE AGAIN HITTING THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE ROAD WITH FRONT OF MY CAR, AND ENDING UP WITH THE REAR END HITTING THE MEDIAN AGAIN WITH THE REAR OF THE CAR BRINGING IT TO A STOP. THANK GOD, ALL OF THE CARS AROUND ME SAW WHAT WAS HAPPENING, AND BRAKED TO STOP AND LET MY CAR DO ITS THING UNTIL IT STOPPED. THE ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING. I PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE....CLUNK.... I SEE WHERE THERE IS A FLAT TIRE WARNING ON DASHBOARD....AT THIS TIME, I'M NOT SURE HOW MANY. IT'S 5 O'CLOCK TRAFFIC IN HOUSTON AND I'M ONLY 1 MILE FROM MY HOUSE. THE TRANSMISSION IS STILL WORKING IN REVERSE AND DRIVE WITH EXTREME CLUNKS AND HORRIBLE NOISES COMING FROM BAC
