Description of the problem	Whilst driving on the road going approximately 45mph the car's engine shut off without warning directly in the middle of a busy intersection narrowly making it across without incident, the car completely was off. The car would not start until 4 tries later. I drove the car towards the dealership and the car shut off again at about 50 mph causing no power steering, power brakes or warning - i noticed this when the car had no power or response when depressing the accelerator. I was able to coast safely into the emergency lane and retry to start the car again this time 3 tries started it back up. I then proceeded to call a tow truck and had it towed to the dealer, they inspected the car and said that, one of the "crankshaft position sensors", was bad and replaced it. 1 week later the same thing happened again, this time nearly causing an accident when on the highway at 60+ mph, it was like one minute your going 60mph then nothing, you have no acceleration, power brakes or steering, i had to force cars to evade me as i coasted with no power or engine into the emergency lane. Had it towed again to the dealer and the problem was again another "crankshaft position sensors", i had them replace them all at $1,100 in total. Infiniti/nissan of north america must recall these sensors! They should not be failing and causing these dangerous symptoms, god forbid someone is crossing traffic when the sensors fail and get t-boned and die or get seriously injured.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
