Description of the problem	After i was finished working i got in my car to go home. I put my foot on the brake and pushed the start button. Nothing happened. I saw an icon of a key in the upper left hand corner of the dash. I took out my owners manual to see what that meant. I read that the remote battery might need to be replaced. I went into the home depot where i work and bought new batteries. I replaced the battery but now i was getting a no key icon. I called the nissan dealer where i bought my car for some advice. They said maybe the remote lost its memory so i called my husband to bring me the extra key. He came. We tried again but it did not start. The no key came up again. After trying for two hours i called aaa for a tow to my mechanic. The next day i went to my nissan dealer. I told him what happened and he said it is the steering lock computer. It would cost about $850. He also said this is a problem with this car. This problem should be recalled by nissan.
