Crankshaft and camshaft position sensors can leak oil into the connector causing Check Engine Light illumination. The engine may also stall as a result. Leaking sensors should be replaced. Certain 2002 models were recalled for a separate camshaft and crankshaft sensor issue. For more information on the recall please click here»

Camshaft sensor went bad. Car was cutting off while driving. I was told repair shop this is a very common problem with Nissan Altima's. Cost of repair(labor and part) was $165

I have replaced the crankshaft sensor twice in 2 days. The check engine light just wont stay cleared. I am going to be replacing the connector since I feel it is broken. Hopefully it is the problem.

Engine would "choke" when driving. Had a hard time starting the engine. Replaced the sensors.

The car would stall or not start. It was bad cam and crankshaft sensors. I replaced the sensors. Upon researching it, it seemed like this was a widespread problem that probably should have been covered with a recall.

Had to have both the Cam and Crank shafts replaced. Ran perfectly after that!
