The contact owns a 2010 Nissan 370z. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to start when the key was used. Also, the power steering became very stiff and failed to turn right or left.

I went to the store and parked my car. When I went back out to my car 15 mins later the steering wheel column had locked up and would not allow me to start my car. It no longer recognized the key. This appears to be a reoccurring issue with my make and model and therefore should be a recall.

Defective electronic steering column lock (escl) on 11/11/2017 my 2010 370z would not start in a commercial parking lot, completely disabled. After some quick research, the problem was identified. I cannot believe there is no recall for this issue as there has been for the gt-r, altima and I believe a few other models. I'm afraid that my vehicle may not be covered under those other recalls although the issue is the same. Note that Nissan discontinued this equipment starting in 2012, likely due to its unreliability. I have owned 4 other Nissan vehicles (1989 Nissan pathfinder, 350z, sentra, frontier). This is the first time I'm stuck with a "dead" car that will cost me a lot to get repaired. It is now sitting at my Nissan dealer and waiting to hear from my service advisor. He was quite aware of this issue.

The electronic steering column lock module failed, preventing starting the car. Had it towed, dealer replaced at a cost of $1200, well known defect among Nissan xxxz owners.

The contact owns a 2010 Nissan 370z. The contact stated that after several attempts, the engine failed to start. The vehicle was towed to an authorized dealer for diagnosis. The technician stated that the malfunction was related to a voluntary recall issued by the manufacturer.

The approximate failure mileage was 47,000.

On December 6, my vehicle's engine did not start at a gas station, so I had to tow it to the nearest Nissan dealership. When I towed it in to the dealership, the service writer already knew the cause of the failure and told me that this will probably be repaired at no charge. He said that this is very common on z. After the diagnosis, he called me and said that the electric steering column lock needs to be replaced. This parts is what they replaces a lot for this service campaign, but somehow my vehicle does not fall in to this service campaign, and he does not understand why it does not, so he told me to call 800-nissan1 to file a complaint. Now, this service campaign was released for electric steering column lock problem for 2009-2010 370z, and now, based on service writer?s opinion and my research on this campaign, my vehicle issue should be included in the service campaign due to 1 my vehicle is 2010 370z. 2 the parts which caused for my vehicle issue was electric steering column lock, and this part is the exactly same parts replaced to take care of this service campaign.

Left stranded in a stressful cituation. I got into my vehicle and it would not start. Thought it was the key, so a day later after leaving the car stranded I came back with my spare key. It didnt work either. Had to tow it to the dealership. They said it was the steering column lock which failed in place rendering the vehicle useless. Once the steering locks, the vehicle becomes electronicly disabled. This seems to be a common problem with the 370z models 2009 thru 2011. 100% of comments I have read claim Nissan does not cover repairs. Total cost of repairs = $1000 to $2000. This is fustrating I bought the car with 7k miles on it, now 10000 miles later and about a year of owning it this happens.
