Description of the problem	Vehicle won't start because the steering lock malfunctioned. This is a very well documented issue with the 370z, and people in forums weren't surprised at all about the issue. This renders the car inoperable since it won't start. Nissan themselves seem to be aware of the issue, since 2012 and up models of this car don't even have the steering lock anymore. But even though they are aware of this issue a recall hasn't been issued. I had read about this issue before i even bought the car since it seems to be very common. In hindsight i wish i had educated myself more on the subject to take preventive measures since this issue is so common and so expensive to fix (part costs north of 500 dollars). But then again, buyers shouldn't be concerned with this at all, but nissan should be very concerned. So i'm hoping you can get nissan to issue a recall for this.
