Description of the problem	I was driving my car all day with no problems at all. I decide to the grocery store with my son and after doing all my shopping i get back into my car and the key security light was on and i tried to start the car by pressing the push start button and it would not start. The key allows me to lock and unlock the door even recognizing it when i put it in the ignition but would not start. Me and my son was stranded for hours in cold. I had to leave the car in the parking lot for 3 days before i was actually available to get it towed. And then i was informed its going to cost about $1000 to have it fixed because of a steering lock. When i researched this is a common and known issue with these cars. I just got this car about 2 years ago why do i have to pay for something i didn't do to the car. Why are these cars still being stole to the public and people not aware of these issues. This could of happen anywhere!! And i don't stay in the most safest area these problems are dangerous for them to just happen anywhere. And it's december!!! It's cold!!! Why am i coming out of pocket for a nissan issue!!!
