Car shut off while driving on highway, hooked it up to a scanner, codes for both cam position sensors A and B malfunction. Replaced both sensors. Still won't run. Scanner still reads cam position sensor b malfunction. Exchanged sensor to verify it was not a bad from the start, still won't run. It will start misfires and stalls. Wiring appears to be okay. Fuses good. P0365 code.

Hello again,

In the diagrams down below I have included the diagnostic troubleshooting guide for Direct Trouble Code[DTC] P0365 for your vehicle. It is from the vehicle manufacturer and if you follow it it will lead you to the problem so you can fix what is going wrong. Please go through this guide and get back to us with how everything turns out.

Thanks,
Alex

When you turn the key to the on position without cranking the engine over can you hear the fuel pump run in the tank for 5 seconds? Also how does the engine sounds when cranking over, normal? Can you please shoot a quick video with your phone so we can see what's going on, that would be great. You can upload it here with your response. That way we can tell if the engine is okay before we go any further.

This guide can help as well:

Well, I have discovered the problem. Thank you guys for your help. I had 0 compression in 2 cylinders, so I pulled the top cover off. Only to discover my camshaft is snapped in two. It appears the middle Journal got hot seized up and snapped the camshaft..

You don't see that problem to often. It sounds like the engine had an oiling problem with one of the journals. Are you going to fix it or have it done? I can send instructions if needed.
