I am almost 100% sure my steering wheel lock finally locked up last night while less than a mile away from my apartment. While it was working you could always tell when the steering wheel unlocked on start up. Now my 370z wont start and the steering wheel actually has free motion L/R and didn't lock the last time the car was shut off.

MY biggest issue is my car is no longer under warranty (the 3yr/36k mile warranty). I have 39,XXX miles on my 09' Z. If this part was recalled on the GTR is it possible that Nissan will fix it for free?
