Find out if your car is in the *Voluntary Service Campaign ** Steering Lock Fix**

If it's not, good luck bartering with Nissan. The dealer is going to want you to pay for the entire repair upfront and then you have to call Nissan NA and open up a case.

From what I've read, sometimes after several weeks of b!tching they reimburse you for about half of the repair. Or you can get a new steering lock and replace it yourself.

I drove down to Courtesy Nissan and paid right at $700 for the ESCL. I called 2 dealers and both estimated about $1,500 if they fixed it.

Yeah i already fought with consumer affairs, they wont do anything for me, hell I had to pay 98$ for the dealer to confirm it was ESCl before consumer would even tell me if theey would cover it or not, so i paid... then they said Nah... we wont help you. Not even the "good will " thing
