Description of the problem	2005 nissan pathfinder was locking up & stalling at low speeds june 2013. I took it to nissan & paid $400 for supposedly a bad camshaft & bad crankshaft. Not more than a month later the vehicle is stalling yet again. Furious i took my vehicle to a non nissan dealer. The other mechanic felt ecm recall & faulty ecm was the cause. He took it back to nissan & insisted the do the recalled part & the bad ecm. Service was upset that he went in there telling them the problem. They free of charge got my car going again. Supposedly my key had "reset" itself. Which "could be caused by a battery being dead for too long or being jump started". Our battery was new & only maybe 6 months old. Nissan service manager claimed she checked the ground & it was all ok. Just the catalytic converters needed replacement for about $2000 but were not the cause of stalling or the key resetting itself. She insisted the ecm was good & the recalled part had nothing to do with it. A week later & here i am again with a car that wont start. This time the nissan tech came to the store where i was stranded at. His machine couldn't even read the codes & he said maybe it was ground wires in my dash or the ecm but hard to say unless i paid to have it looked at again! Of course i have no choice but for them to look at it. I wouldn't mind as most for minor repairs/maitenance but it seems this year/model is pure crap. After reading other complaints i realize that my car shaking at 60+ miles when i do hit the freeway is a huge problem as well! We live in a small town where we don't usually drive those high speeds so i never really thought much of it until now. Nissan knows very well these are huge problem cars yet doesn't care! These vehicles are not safe. The stalling has happened at intersections or driving!!

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.
