Description of the problem	Hi, i'm [xxx] from the united arab emirates living in abu dhabi and i have a 2009 nissan altima which i never had any issues except this one. It started when i woke up in the morning as usual going to work and trying to start the car but it did not start, i opened the hood trying to figure out if it was from the battery but i could not find anything unusual as i already had my battery changed before 3 months ago, then i decided to call nissan workshop and explained what happened to me and then after trying two couple things asked from the nissan supervisor i found that the problem still exist. Later on they decided to send a towing car to me and took the car to the workshop after that they called me and told me that the cost will be around 1100 $ for replacing the steering lock assembly !!.
