He suggested replacing the harness from the second connection in from the front of the car which controls the cam sensor, crankshaft sensor, MAF sensor and others which are the major causes of the symptoms you are experiencing. the wires are causing intermittent skips in the signal and shutting down the car as a result. He also suggested looking in salvage yards for this part as a new one runs 500$ plus!! Hope this helps.

Nissan put out a bulletin about this
