| Description of the problem | I had my vehicle towed to a local nissan dealership to get a key made for it, since i had lost the key. The vehicle was in operation up to date. After getting a key made by the dealership, the key will not turn in the ignition for it is locked. The dealership told me that i now need to purchase a steering lock to get it fixed. The murano i purchased was from a used dealership and i was unaware of any recalls and did not receive any letter to date for the recall on the steering lock since i have had it. There was a recall done on the nissan murano's in the 2006 date range for this same reason. I would like it to be fixed free of charge since i did not break it to begin with. |
