Description of the problem	The 2nd time the crank sensor went out i was traveling down the freeway at about 75-mph when the car just died - i mean no power and no warning. I had to make my way across all lanes to the right shoulder with only a prayer! jb i've contacted nissan direct on several occasions where i've been advised ridiculous things from the "specialist" like they put my car on the scope and there was no reading of a bad part (see other complaint about the transmission replacement) - question is how do you scope a shifting problem with a manual transmission??? And "why was i so upset when the crank sensor was only a cosmetic thing" - a what?? If you call having your car shut down driving down the freeway a "cosmetic thing" i think the so-called "specialists" are a farce and stall tactic, nothing else. After the 2nd time the crank sensor went out i was told by nissan (not the dealership but nissan corp) that the "master tech drove the car at 80 mph and couldn't get the crank sensor to go out again" - that's funny, the 1st time it went out i was in a parking lot doing about 15 mph so why have they acted as if the situation only happens at a certain mph??? Makes you wonder if they know a lot more than they're saying! There was a recall for the crank sensors for the 2003 & 2004 cars, which they say my vin number does not meet the criteria. Well what does then?? I understand on an overall basis from the reports i've read the 350z is a good car - what i'm the most disappointed with is nissan's extremely poor customer service attitude and lack of acceptance when there are legitimate problems. At this point i will never purchase another nissan product - they are not the only game in town. I pay a healthy price for the privilege of driving a new sports car - i expect to get what i pay for even if nissan has to bite the big one on this particular vehicle. jb

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
