For all we know, it might not be mileage related, but rather correlated to time... I mean, that could be why we're seeing this issue pop up en masse over the past two months or so...

But I'm excited for spring to come - going to slap on the NISMO's finally, and fully blackout the car! And if we're stranded, it would be the perfect excuse to goto Jeff's house and have a slumber party/pillow fight with the gang.

Jeff=me?

waaaasabi

Is there any other? In my travels, I have met many a Jeff, but my heart only knows one Jeff...

Also, if everyone in this thread could spare 5 minutes to submit a quick e-mail tip to the following e-mail addresses regarding the steering lock issue in Nissan vehicles, it might help the effort a bit.

Edmunds Insideline: Insideline.Editor@Edmunds.com
Jalopnik: tips@jalopnik.com
Autoblog: Dan.Roth@weblogsinc.com

Somebody's going to want to pick this story up... hopefully!

For WIW I only drive 3.5 miles to work which hardly has a chance to charge the battery. With 35k mi on a rev a 2009 model and it's still has a strong charge.

kenchan

yah, but with 35k miles your z's getting a lot of play time on the weekends to charge the battery.

on the contrary my 09 has 8k miles. and under the covers right now hibernating (plugged in ofcourse).

This is what Nissan Sport Magazine reply to me:

Jose-

"You’re the first 370Z subscriber who has mentioned this. I’ll have to research the topic before making any comment. This may also be a letter in the upcoming issue, so let me know your hometown".

David Muramoto

Nissan Sport Magazine

Here is his email so more people can write him: nissan7gt3@comcast.net

Thanks waaaasabi for drafting the letter!

BTW, not taking credit for creating the letter.

Papozalsa, that's good to hear. Glad you didn't get a canned response! Props to you and Wassaaaaaaabi!

Yes, but I got a canned response from the Representtive of Nissan of North America Customer Service for the complaint I wrote them concerning this issue.

She told me that my complaint was going to be logged and that they have not received enough complaints to act and make a recall or TSB on the issue.

Again her name is Rebecca Martin and her telephone for those of you that have gone or going thru this issue. Telephone is 1-615-725-1000.
I had my issues in the past with her since most of the time she is clueless about an issue.

However we need to keep pounding them, here is the email again: Nissan North Amerca customer service:
customersupport@nissan-usa.com

I already sent back a reply asking exactly what creating a file does that would set my mind at ease? Hey, at least I didn't get a form letter!
