Description of the problem	My 04 nissan altima v6 one day began to buck while on the highway. I made it home, then when i went to start it wouldn't. Basically ever since that day it's been an on going problem w/ not starting, shutting off unexpectedly while driving and completely locking up making it very difficult to pull over and dangerous. At one point it would not accelerate. I am the mother of an infant so until i find a resolution i need to borrow cars to travel with him. I have replaced the camshaft sensor and the throttle position sensor which were the codes that came up and still i cannot drive my car. I then researched my make/model/year and found i was not alone. Many others have encountered the same issues and have yet to reach a resolution and apparently nissan is not declaring a recall on 2004's but have on "02" and "03" which had the same exact issues. I do not want to continue to buy parts and try to fix something that is defective as i read many others have done. I plan on contacting the bbb and taking it from there because i don't know what to do. So here i am making payments on a vehicle that is extremely unsafe for my child and i and no answers on why these cars are malfunctioning and continuing to read camshaft... Etc even after being replaced???? Please help.

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.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
