2010 Nissan 370Z Steering Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1039867
Internal NHTSA #	10564433
Manufacurer	Nissan North America, Inc.
Brand	NISSAN
Model	370Z
Model Year	2010
File date	13/02/14
Component	STEERING
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Stopped the vehicle at a gas station to refuel. Upon completion of refueling, depressed the brake and pressed the starter button (normal starting procedure). The starter indicator would not change from "lock", the vehicle would not crank, and no accessories would activate. The vehicle was subsequently towed to a local nissan dealer. After evaluation, dealer stated the "steering lock" unit had failed. After an internet search, this appears to be part 48700-jf00d. The nissan dealer representative stated this issue is covered under a tsb, but i cannot confirm at this time. The dealer stated the part will not be available for at least two weeks, and nissan will not offer a courtesy vehicle. Internet searches show this has been a common problem for 370z owners since 2009, and the steering lock was removed in 2012 models forward. I feel nissan should have done a mandatory recall for a part that is likely to fail at any time and leave the driver stranded.
