its common on newer cars for these items to fail with any car manufacturer.. its just a bad design, either that or everyone buys the same cheap part from the same maker lol.

Lol, yes Neveucd, I am sorry you must go through what I did.
I was pissed off they had to order a shortblock but I was pleased to hear it was brand new being made in japan for my Z.
As for the steering lock relay I was very very annoyed...
Missed my first day of classes for spring semester.
But luckily my teachers were all cool.

I'm very sorry this has happened to you again Daishi.

I pulled my car out of the garage to wash, we had a summer meet today at the shop. When I got out of the car I used the steering wheel to support my weight. (I do not weigh a lot). When I was done I tried to start the car and it was in "LOCK" mode, with the yellow "KEY" light illuminated. The steering wheel is un-locked and I can not access the "ACC" mode in the car. FML. Trying to find a nissan in my neighborhood to borrow their LOCK SET-STEERING - 370Z (Z34) 2009+ :: Nissan Parts, NISMO and Nissan Accessories - Courtesyparts.com! LOL

My "key" light sometimes comes on..
is this an indication that it's going to fail soon?

Came out to the garage today to mess w/ the Z again. I had read on another post not regarding this issue that if you reset the ECU and also pump the break 5 times the ECU will reset properly. I tried it out and "BAM" car started up. My steering lock assembly is still broken and the wheel will not lock but atleast I don't have to tow it to Nissan! I hate towing lowered vehicles!

Good job. You got lucky that it got stuck in the unlocked position!

I'll forgive the thread necromancy since it indicates you actually used the search function

It's a voluntary recall. There are a ton of threads on this subject if you search Steering Lock Recall. If you had the work already done and had to pay out of pocket, contact Nissan Corporate, and they should reimburse you for the cost. If you're looking to have the work done, any Nissan dealer should be able to do the work after they verify your vehicle is part of the recall.
