It's only hot when it's 110 plus.

And, rock lawns are awesome, because I care about the environment (I don't waste water!).

Pull the fuse, a 25mins simple work that can save you $1,000 plus 2 - 3 weeks of waiting time.

I already got the steering lock failure, warranty was expired and it cost me $1100 to fix it. Ill be safe for another year, ill be sure to pull the fuse before the year ends and maybe maybe before that Nissan recalls the part.

Well the reason I'm waiting is because if they do recall the part and I have to go to the dealer what I'm I going to say when they see the fuse missing or the wired cut?? The warranty for the replaced part is for a year, so I want to leave it there in case the lock fails again, then after the year I can pull it.

Also the replace steering lock is the D version, I believe that's the one that should have no problems.

Also I'm scare

Tell them you pulled the fuse because the steering like is a POS. I think it was removed from the later models entirely. Don't see why they would have any problem with it, also the fuse is not exactly easily accessible.

If they do have a problem, find another dealer.

The ONLY potential issue I see is with the insurance company if the car gets stolen.
