Description of the problem	I have a 2009 nissan altima. Apparently nissan is fully aware of the issues that the electric steering column lock is having. Nissan chose to extend the warranty instead of recall the part. Knowing that the majority of the effected altima owners would fall outside that warranty. Of course now my steering column has malfunctioned even though nissan states that this would not be an issue for majority of car owners. They know this is a huge problem. I have found thousands of write ups on the internet. It is unfair to the altima car owners. Nissan is not taking responsibility for using defective parts. They have since discontinued using these parts, and left nissan altima car owners holding their dirty little secret. The one car we have can not function, and they are asking for over$1000 to repair it. Issue: the car will not drive because of this malfunction and defective part. Please help us the 2009 nissan altima car owners g et this part fully recalled by nissan. Thank you!

A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
