| Description of the problem | Had the electronic steering control lock replaced january of 2019 for the second time. Replace in 2013 also. Servuce campaign has been issued for this problem but told not my specific model altima. All modes use the same part. Car wont start when it fails and can occur any time. Worried it will fail in a dangerous part of town. When part failed i was out of state and luckily in a parking lot. Why is tis part covered by a service campaign but only certain models that use the same part? |
