Description of the problem	My husband went out to move my car and it started fine. About an hour later i went to get into my car to leave for work and it would not do anything. The only light that came on the dash was a small key that kept flashing. After having my car towed twice and calling all of the nissan dealerships around here, i was told no one could fix my car because it was a hybrid. Finally i called the nissan dealership one more time and this time all of a sudden they said they could work on it. I was very frustrated and had already been without my car for 3 weeks. Once i had it towed to the dealership they were able to fix it and said that it was a familar problem with this year of car. It was the steering mechanism and ended up costing me over $800. The guy at the dealership told me they had already fixed 30 vehicles like mine with the same problem since november of 2012. If this is such a common problem then why hasn't nissan issued a recall on this??????
