I have '01 Nissan Sentra. Over the years I kept having my car auto shut off while driving. My recent incident occurs on 2/17/22 while driving on a freeway at 70mph that left me stranded. I had it towed to the nearest auto mechanics. While the engines shuts down, the Service Engine Soon light came on followed by the Battery Icon and Oil Lamp Icon. In the past I had most if not all my catalytic converters and O2 sensors replaced but the problem persisted. Some mechanics stated it was electrical but offered no solution. I did had an oil changed and battery tested a week earlier but no issue was found. My most recent mechanic checked it out and told me it's not the battery nor the alternator, they're both still good. I had to leave my car over the weekends for a full diagnostic.

WAS DRIVING AT A SPEED OF AROUND 45 MPH ON A BUSY COLORADO ROADWAY AND THE CAR ALL OF THE SUDDEN STALLED. LOST ENGINE POWER, POWER STEERING AND BRAKES. LUCKILY COASTED TO THE SHOULDER. THE CAR HAD TO BE TOWED TO AN AUTOMOTIVE SHOP. IT WAS DIAGNOSED AND IT WAS DETERMINED THE CRANKSHAFT AND CAMSHAFT SENSORS HAD FAILED. I CALLED NISSAN ON 7/12/2016 AND REPORTED THIS SAFETY ISSUE (REFERENCE NUMBER 22954833). ON 7/14/2016 I TALKED TO [XXX] AT NISSAN AND HE SAID THIS WAS RECALLED IN 2003 AND AN ALREADY CLOSED RECALL. I ASKED HIM IF HE WAS GOING TO REPORT THIS INCIDENT TO NISSAN ENGINEERS DEPARTMENT, BECAUSE IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND A RECENT RECALL ISSUE. I STATED THAT BECAUSE THE CAR STALLED WHILE DRIVING THAT PUT PEOPLE?S LIVES AT RISK.

CAR CONSTANTLY SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING, STEERING AND BRAKES LOCK UP AS WELL. IT DOES THIS IDLING AT LIGHTS AND WHILE DRIVING MAKING TURNS. VERY DANGEROUS! I HAVE REPLACED SEVERAL SENSORS (AT MY EXPENSE) TO TRY TO KEEP THE CAR GOING, BUT I'M TERRIFIED TO DRIVE IT AS I FEAR IT WILL STALL AGAIN IN TRAFFIC AND POTENTIALLY KILL ME AND MY FAMILY. CHECKED MY VIN AGAINST THE MANY RECALLS THAT WOULD CAUSE THESE PROBLEMS AND STATES THAT NONE OF THESE RECALLS APPLY TO THIS CAR! NISSAN USED TO BE A GOOD COMPANY, NOW IT'S JUST A LEMON FACTORY! NOT TO MENTION THEIR DEALERSHIP SERVICE IS ABSOLUTELY USELESS! I DON'T SEE HOW SUCH DANGEROUS AND POTENTIALLY DEADLY ISSUES DO NOT HAVE RECALLS ON THEM!!!

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT 40 PLUS MILES AN HOUR THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER CLOGGED AND CAUGHT FIRE CAUSING A MISFIRE IN CYLINDER ONE AND RUINING THE IGNITION COIL FOR THAT CYLINDER. I CONTACTED NISSAN AFTER SEEING ONLINE THAT THE EXACT SAME PART HAS MALFUNCTIONED ON SEVERAL OTHER CARS OF THE EXACT SAME YEAR MAKE AND MODEL. I WAS INSTRUCTED TO TAKE IT TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND HAVE THEM DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM FOR A $89 FEE. EVEN IF I HAD THE 89 DOLLARS TO PAY TO HAVE IT DIAGNOSED IT WOULD NOT HAVE PAID IT. I DID NOT USE FAULTY MATERIAL IN THE MANUFACTURE OF THE VEHICLE AND FEEL THAT ANY DIAGNOSTIC FEE SHOULD HAVE BEEN ABSORBED BY NISSAN NORTH AMERICA SINCE THEY VOLUNTARILY RECALLED THE PART. IT COULD HAVE BURST INTO FLAMES AND IGNITED THE UNUSED FUEL IN CYLINDER ONE KILLING ME AND MY CHILDREN. UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION INTO MY VEHICLE IT HAD ALREADY HAD THE PART REPLACED ONCE AND IT STARTED TO FAIL AGAIN AFTER I WAS THE UNLUCKY PERSON TO BUY IT. AFTER THE PURCHASE OF THIS VEHICLE, I
