Component | ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING |
Product type code | VEHICLE |
Description of the problem | 1) car has been meticulously cared for. At 44,450 miles, the engine dies unexpectedly while going at 25mph. Engine cranks roughly for a long time at start, but starts eventually. I get the "check engine light", "vdc off" and "slip" light on. 2) the error was associated to "camshaft position sensor". Since the start of this condition, engine dies atleast once every drive - mostly at low rpm, but twice at 25 and 40 mph resulting in near collisions! I called infiniti and they mentioned that my particular vin has no recalls associated with it for this condition - but i clearly see a 630,000 car recall for this condition under engine & engine cooling with nhtsa id# 03v455000. 3) the dealership is willing to repair for $105/hr for something that is clearly a vehicle defect. They will change the camshaft position sensor. |
