2003 NISSAN 350Z SHUTS DOWN IN TRAFFIC WITHOUT WARNING. NHTSA HAS THIS CAR LISTED ON THEIR RECALL LIST BUT THE MANUFACTURER SAYS THERE IS NO RECALL ON MY PARTICULAR VEHICLE. I CONTACTED NISSAN, THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO UNTIL I HAD IT DIAGNOSED BY A DEALERSHIP. I WENT TO MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND HAD MY CAR DIAGNOSED AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE CAM POSITION SENSOR WHICH WOULD CAUSE THE CAR TO SHUT DOWN WITHOUT WARNING, THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT GOES ON, THE TCS LIGHT, AND SLIP LIGHT, LIGHT UP AFTER RESTARTING AND IT TAKES A FEW CRANKS TO RESTART. SO AFTER SPENDING $88.00 TO HAVE THIS DIAGNOSIS DONE THEY STILL SAY SORRY WE CAN'T HELP YOU. THIS IS THE VEHICLE THAT MY SON DRIVES BACK AND FORTH TO COLLEGE AND AS OF RIGHT NOW HE IS WALKING BECAUSE WE ARE AFRAID TO LET HIM DRIVE IT UNTIL IT IS REPAIRED. DO I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE MOST DEFINITELY! DRIVING 70 MPH ON THE INTERSTATE AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN SHUT DOWN WITH CARS BEHIND YOU I FEEL IS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN! THE CAR CAN NOT BE DRIVEN LIKE THIS, EVERY TIME THE CAR IS USED IT HAPPENS MORE THEN ONCE. THESE ARE THE SAME EXACT SYMPTOMS THAT THE RECALL LISTS. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE 3/25/11 TILL THE PRESENT.
