Description of the problem	Just found out nissan issued a temporary recall for an extremely common problem with the steering lock control for the push start vehicles. Nissan knew this was a common problem with the 2009-2010 models. Why would they issue a temporary recall but not inform their costumers. I never received a letter and took my vehicle in for service before the recall expired and they didn't inform me either. Luckily, this happen while parked at my home... But what if this happen in either bad weather or an isolated location? They are saying this is not a safety issue but it clearly is. I'm actually here at the dealership and a $1371. 44 invoice. But because the vehicle won't start no other way, i'm forced to pay for it. What if i didn't have the money. I'm a single military parent. This is completely unsatisfactory service from nissan. This issue needs to be recalled indefinitely, not temporary when the issue has been reported by thousands of people.
