| Description of the problem | I was driving and my vehicle cut off. I attempted to restart the vehicle multiple times, but it did not start. I took it to my local nissan dealership and they suggested that i replace the camshaft sensor. I agreed to this service as well as purchased a battery and had a seal replaced. The vehicle drove well for about a week. Approximately a week later it cut off again. I returned to the dealer and they completed an idle relearn on the truck. It was fine for about a month, but has resumed cutting off which has resulted in it stalling in traffic and leaving my family stranded while we attempt to troubleshoot. It was taken to the dealer again on 7/18 due to it breaking down. When it arrived at the shop it did not turn on initially, but they were able to start it. It was there until 7/21 during which time i agreed to have their shop foreman drive it home. They claim that it never cut off during the time that they had it. They were unable to provide a reason for the issue, stating that the truck has to break down for them to troubleshoot due to the computer not receiving a code from the vehicle. They suggested that i leave it with them until it happens again, which would be fine if it wasn't my only source of transportation. This issue is definitely a safety issue as the vehicle could cut off at any time and lead to a fatal vehicle accident. How is it possible that no solution can be provided until the vehicle is completely disabled? |
