Description of the problem	Dear nissan service: i am the owner of a 2006 nissan frontier se with approximately 124,000 miles. The vehicle was purchased used from nalley nissan in 2012 with approximately 89,000 miles on it. The history of the vehicle was meticulous, minus that the catalytic converter had been replaced by nalley nissan. In february 04, 2016 i had the left catalytic converter replaced at nalley nissan. The right catalytic converter was replaced prior to purchasing the vehicle. My vehicle has already had both catalytic converters replaced. On may 11, 2018 i was advised that i need both of my catalytic converters replaced again at stone mountain nissan. My check engine light had came on agaiinhowever, both of the catalytic converters have been previously replaced. It should be noted that this in not an inexpensive repair. I only used premium gasoline in my vehicle to ensure its proper performance and get my vehicle regularly maintained an nissan dealerships. It is rather obvious that there is something else going on with my vehicle that is defective in nature. I had read that this is a common problems with nissan frontiers and nissan altimas. I do not want to get the catalytic converts replaced at estimated $2200 and have this problem resurface again. In georgia, we have annual emissions tests and my vehicle will not pass an emissions test. Just recently, i had taken my vehicle on a short trip to north georgia. The engine stalled and completely lost power. I was able to get the vehicle home however, it is rather evident that something is mechanically wrong with my vehicle and just simply replacing the catalytic converters will not ensure that this problem will happen again. Is there any guidance that you can offer? Regards [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
