Car shuttered when coming to a stop. Had to put car in N to keep rpm's up, then shift to D after stopping. Took it into an auto shop and they replaced idle control valve, gasket, fuel injection, and replaced power steering and hoses thinking that was the problem. That alone cost $638.00. When I called Nissan service, the maintenance guy said, "Oh, it's the intake manifold gasket", which cost another $630.00. Kept throwing a number 4 cylinder code as well. Someone told me that it's the way the engine casts were made and cooled after casting. The number 4 cylinder gets hotter and ruins the gaskets. I don't think it was ever recalled.
