| Description of the problem | Electronic steering column lock (escl) failed, the car was totally immobilized, was not responding to keyless start, steering wheel was locked. This happened when the car was parked. The problem with escl lock is known to nissan, it issued a recall and extended warranty for the part for other car models. I'm worrying whether this can happen while car is moving. |
