Description of the problem	Wife went to drive to work in morning car would not do anything. Turn over or sense the key. She tried other key and same thing nothing. Googled issue and nissan admitted there is a issue with electronic steering lock column. Instead of fixing issue they just extended warranty in hopes that when not if it went out warranty would be up. Called nissan north america they told me car is over warranty but if i take it and get it diagnosed and there are no other problems they may help cover repair cost. Did just what they said local dealer confirmed it was my electronic steering locking unit. Called nissan back they called dealership and confirmed. They then called me back and said we cant do anything its out of warranty. Why make me pay more then say oh no we cant help you. So i had to wait for nisasan to tell me either yes or no they would help after they said no i called dealership to go ahead with work they no longer had part another 2009 came in with same problem. My local dealership is coast nissan of san luis obispo. Car gave no warning escl was going out and once it goes out your stranded this is a issue nissan should have addressed but would rather save money and not fix defective issues.
