Steering lock failure

It seems some got notice of this but I've received nothing from Nissan. I read in a different thread that only some 2010's are affected. Anyone know?

Voluntary Recall

Voluntary Recall
As far as I can tell, the recall is based on which revision of the ESCL you have, not the model year (although there is a strong correlation between the two, there seems to be a period in 2010 when some Zs got the latest revision and some didn't). If you stick your head under the dash, you should be able to see the label on the ESCL with the revision on it (A, B, C, &c). Nissan is replacing Rev A and Rev B (maybe Rev C, too, but I can't remember).

I'm not sure which countries/regions are affected but I think CA is on the list. Contact a dealer with your VIN and they can check to see if you qualify.

Guess I'll just head to the dealer. After doing some yoga under the dash to get a pic of the label (only way I was going to read that label with these old eyes was to get a pic and blow it up), it appears I have the 2nd gen Rev C

#48700-JF00C Production Date: 2009.10-2010.09

Seems 50/50 as to whether this one is being recalled or not. Rev A&B for sure, but not all Rev C's. I was hoping to go to the dealer armed with knowledge, but I guess I'll have to rely on them.
