Description of the problem	My wife drove the car to her class and parked it on a parking lot. The car couldn't be started (push button couldn't start the car) when she was done with the class and wanted to get back home. The yellow key light showed on the left top panel and red security light flashed. The fob key still worked in locking/unlocking the car doors. The aaa was called and they came to try to jump start the car. It didn't start. The car had to be towed to the nearest nissan dealership. They found it was the steering wheel lock assembly problem. It cost $700 to repair it. I called nissan north america and was told the part has not be on the recall list.
