Description of the problem	Turned off my car to get gas when i went to restart it wouldn't turn on. Had the car towed to dealership to get diagnostics completed as recommend from nissan. I see this as a major safety issue as i'm a single woman stranded in a bad part of the city waiting helplessly for a tow truck. Then had to ride along with a stranger (tow truck driver) to the dealership. Results came back as steering lock unit needed to be replaced. Filed a case with nissan to have this covered as they put out an extended warranty for this part. The case was denied because they said the warranty expired in march '15. I now have to pay $1008. 21 that other customers didn't b/c their issue fell within the warranty time. It makes no sense that some customers are being covered while other are not b/c their issues happened earlier. Nissan has clearly recognized this part as an issue and are now not treating all customer's fairly. They said that i should have received something in the mail about this and it was all over their website. Well, i didn't get anything in the mail & i'm not sure if most people are looking into how their car is going to breakdown in the future so i was never aware of this until it happened.
