Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My 2004 nissan sentra ser spec v showed the service engine soon light on august 28, 2007. a certified mechanic used a diagnostic tool to determine that the car had a malfunctioning crankshaft position sensor. upon doing some research on the internet, i found that nissan has issued a recall on some 2003 and 2004 sentras and altimas with this problem. however, when i contacted my local dealership, i was informed that my car was not eligible for the recall warranty work and that the extended warranty i was given at the time of purchase does not cover this particular problem. if nissan has acknowledged this problem and my car is having the problem, why do they refuse to fix it? *tr
