Brand	NISSAN
Model	370Z
Model Year	2009
File date	23/01/13
Component	STEERING
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Drove my car to work. Upon trying to leave work, the fob key unlocked the car, but the car displayed a key warning light indicated no fob detected. I inserted the fob into the intelligent key slot to the left of the steering wheel, no luck. I tried a backup fob (with good batteries), and even jump starting the car... Still no luck. Headlights and brake lights work indicating power to the vehicle. Apparently a defective steering lock solenoid failed and caused car to cease to start or operate and was left stranded. Upon research online this is a known issue for 2009 for many many people. This is unfortunate because nissan doesn't cover this part after most of the reports i read online failed (36,000+ miles) out of the warranty period costing consumers $1,000+ in repair plus cost to tow and extra for a rental if need be.
