Description of the problem	My 2009 nissan altima is currently having issues with the defects in the electronic steering column lock (escl). The car just cut off on me as i was parking in a parking spot. Luckily i was able to force the gear in park. It disabled the push-button ignition on my car and locked my steering column. So, i was stranded! This is big safety issue because my car could've just continued to roll if i couldn't get it into the parked gear! It's unfair that as a consumer of nissan, i have to experience this issue after the nissan warranty on the escl expired in march 2015 and be posed with paying over $1000 in repair costs. Per nissan, there was no specific mileage number that this defect could occur; so they should recall the escl systems in all affected cars instead of covering their own behinds and giving a warranty with unlimited miles and an end date of march 2015. Clearly nissan is not concerned with its consumers safety. It's not fair to consumers that bought nissan vehicles that experience the dangerous defect after march 2015. I am a very unhappy consumer at this time.
