Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have taken my 2003 nissan altima to the dealer for the crankshaft position recall (nhtsa campaign id number : 06v242000). now the ses light is illuminated indicating that the crankshaft position sensor needs to be replaced. seems to me that if this defect is common, and it obviously is based on my research, and if it could cause crashes and, therefore injury or even death, that nissan would be obliged to rectify the problem--obviously they are not. what is being done to rectify the situation? why hasn't something been done already (obviously the reprogramming associated with the recall has not resolved the problem). by the way, if there were already injuries or deaths then someone failed to act in a timely manner. *tr
