I'm well aware of the steering lock and some other hiccups... but it's not stopping me from getting the Z...unless people start/ continue to file complaints with the .National highway safety admin .. it won't...unfortunately most car companies choose to ignore known issues ...it's not just Nissan

If I somehow end up having to spend $1000 or more on this repair just a few months after my warranty expired, and (again) with just 13,000 miles on the car, I'm done with Nissan. |

Is it even worth going through the hassle of replacing the batteries in my fobs or trying to jump start it? Or should I just get it towed to the dealership? If I have to pay for it out of pocket, I might as well take it to my local import guy and get it done for half the labor cost.

If you bought the car in September of 09, I think you still have until September of 2012 before the warranty expired. That will be 3 years. Unless you purchased in September of 08, then never mind.

Jeez, another one. I'm seriously thinking about just buying the part for peace of mind, even though I'm under warranty. Has anyone else done that? I'm seriously afraid to drive my 09 more than 30 miles away from home because of this.

I just replaced mine last night. But I plan to buy another lock in a year. It's not just peace of mind but a hassle getting it on a tow truck, dealer spending weeks figuring out what's wrong then charging $1k for a 5 minute job.
