Description of the problem	My 2009 nissan altima unexpectedly would not start in june of 2015 and i was on my way to pick up my brother from school. I thought it might have been a battery issue. So, i called my insurance company and they came out to give me a jump. That was not the culprit. Unfortunately, it was after hours and i had to wait till morning to have my vehicle towed to tires plus. They were unable to figure out the problem. Next, i had my vehicle towed to nissan who were able to diagnose the issue. After further research, i learned that the escl is a known defect and that an extended warranty was issued to these vehicles. My warranty expired a month prior to this incident (very inconvenient) resulting in a $1,000 out of pocket expense that i did not have readily available (i am a graduate student). I wish that instead of just offering an extended warranty for this part that nissan would have recalled the part to avoid this headache all together.
