2002 Nissan Maxima Electrical system Problems

“In sept. 2014, my car was in for service and recall number 03v455000 was performed. The 2 camshaft sensors and 1 crankshaft sensor were to all be replaced. In april 2016, my car was experiencing problems with all 3 sensors. My car would stop at any moment (stopped or driving). I've been in many intersections or the interstate and it'll die on me and take a long time to crank back up. I had to pay over $120 at the dealership to get the diagnosis. Upon looking at my recall paperwork, only the crankshaft sensor was replaced. …”

“In reference to > NHTSA campaign number: 03v455000 component(s): engine and engine cooling I nearly crashed when my car died while merging onto a freeway. My car doesn't start like it used to.

I used obd scanner to decipher the problem. I looked for recall online and found the one located above. It is identical to my issues.I contacted Nissan and they refused. I could have died. Please help thank you!”

“When I got into my car to leave, the car would not start. I had some one give me a jump, and my car started. I was driving home, when all of a sudden, the car quick running. I coasted to the side of the road and parked. I had my car towed to peak Nissan. Peak check the car the next day and told me all I need was a battery. They replaced the battery, the car has run fine since. I drive a 2002 Nissan Maxima. My big question, why did the battery failure cause the car to stop running?”

Towed to dealer (santa rosa Nissan, santa rosa california). Rented a car. Just received call from dealer stating I need an alternator, belts and have a massive oil leak at valve cover gasket. Told him I spilled oil yesterday, my mechanic already checked for leaks, there are none. …”
