I was told that i need to replace the parking brake sensor. it won't start at times unless you keep trying or put it in neutral. i was told that the engine is not recognizing that the car is in park at times.

Yup, sounds like the remedy to me. Looks like about $140 switch unfortunately, but less than an hour to replace I would think. There is an adjustment on them that can be tried before spending $140, but don't get your hopes up that it will work. Always liked those Nissans, but when it comes to buying parts for them, that's the part that hurts. Same application on my 99 Caravan - part-$12.00. Didn't tell you that to rub it in, just as an example. Good Luck.

Probably if mechanically inclined at all. Stop at autozone, and ask them to print you out, step by step for replacing & adjusting switch. If no luck, you can always go to their site (autozone.com) and sign up free & get article yourself. Good Luck, let me know how it goes.
