I have a 00 Maxima and it had been brothered me couple months because of the starting problems. My car could start but it just cranked so long before it started and sometimes it could start fine as normal. I would say total of 5 times start would have at least 2 times have problem. I took my Maxima to more than 5 different repair shops and they can't figure out what the problem was. I asked the same question to all those 5 repair shops if it is the starter problem and they all said no, they said the car won't crank if that was the starter. So they didn't replace the starter, but one of the shop said it was the crankshaft sensor, then I replaced it for $150. I still experienced the same issue after they replaced the crankshaft senor. I was so stressed because I don't feel confidence every time when I drive it until 2 days ago, I went to a car repair shop in Brooklyn, NJ which my friend introduced this place to me. The owner(chinese guy) seems very professional and he figured out that was the starter problem right after he heard that cranking sound for couple times. He replaced the starter for only $200(labor + part) and replaced the 2 front break pad and disk for $120. I am really impressed for the service he gave and the prices that he offered. I wish his shop is in Indiana since I go to school there and I am only in New York for the summer.

I swear this is not an AD, the reason I am posting this thread because I think that is a really nice repair shop and want to share with all yours. I would recommend it to anyone who is in new york area.
