| Description of the problem | I own a 2009 nissan 370z. There have been issues previously mentioned by members in the 370z. Com forum and i have fallen victim to it. The steering lock system in the 370z is faulty and unreliable. The part that needs replacement is a revb steering lock 48700-jf00b. The same issue happened to the nissan gtr and was recalled for that issue. Due to the amount of concern i see in the forums of other owners, this issue should be recalled and fixed. Safety wise, for owners overseas like myself, could have ended up stuck in the middle of nowhere. Thank you for your time. *js |
