2006 Nissan Maxima p0345 code?

Driving it today at 45 mph it jerked HARD and then stays in 5th gear even when i put it in manual mode. I can feel it shift into fourth even thogh it says 5th but it shifts really hard and jerks. I went to oriellys and pulled the code and it said p0345 cam position sensor a circuit bank 2. lights that are lit up are check engine, slip, and tsc light. Does this sound right? I thought it be more of a tranny issue since it stays in 5th? this is my girlfriends car and her only means of transportation to and from work, any help will be appreciated

The car entered fail safe mode. Very common issue around here. Change both of the camshaft position sensors. Use OEM parts from the dealership, as people have had problems with the aftermarket ones on multiple occasions.

thanks!, how much are those from the dealer? i couldnt get it from oriellys or napa or advanced? Although it does show the code p0345, how does that result in the hard jerking and shifting of the tranny?

Crime's right. Should be about $150 (or less) for the two.
