I just saw a news article that NISSAN is recalling over 2 million cars (700,000 cars made between 1998 and 2003 in North America) for an engine sensor defect. I hope that it doesn't involve the Maxima...but I'm sure it will. Anyone else have any other word on this?

 

My engine position sensor had to be replaced about a month ago. I have 35K on my 2002. Car just wouldn't start because it didn't know how the cam was positioned and I had to pump the gas a whole lot to get it to start.

 

wildmanal, how long did the job take? Are we talking about a simple repair or one that involves removing parts of the engine?

 

It was a simple repair. I dropped my car off at the dealer that morning and they called me mid afternoon to come pick it up. I think it was a 1.5 hour job. Nothing to worry about if you have to get it done.

 

roger that! thanks
