Here's some more info from Nissan's website:

Background
Nissan/Infiniti will be conducting a voluntary safety recall campaign for engine sensors on certain model year vehicles.

Reason for Action
Vehicles are being recalled for replacement of the engine crank position and cam position sensors. Improper operation of the sensors could cause the engine malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) to illuminate; create a no-start condition or reduced engine power; or cause the engine to stop running without warning during vehicle operation. To this date, no accidents or injuries have occurred.

Nissan Action
To correct this condition, at no charge to the customer, the engine crank position and cam position sensors will be replaced.

Nissan/Infiniti plan to begin notifying owners of potentially affected vehicles in December requesting them to bring their vehicle to a Nissan/Infiniti dealer. In addition to direct customer contact (via mail), Nissan will post recall information on the www.nissanusa.com Web site at the same time owner letters are mailed.

REDUCE ENGINE POWER, free KS? I hope so, but it would suck if they deny it because of my mods...

Nissan has never denied me of any recall work and I have a mods. The onyl reason people get denied is because Nissan claims the modifications caused or help cause the failure, however, in this case every vehicle is affected even the non-modded ones. As a result, Nissan will not deny you.

Can they please be a little more vague about what cars are being recalled.... They need to recall the VE...jerks.... I have a buddy who's a mechanic at a local nissan dealership here. He mentioned to me a few months ago that the new 2.5 Altimas had issues that were soon to be recalled.
