Starter Solenoid Problems of Nissan 370Z

Steering lock solenoid failure at 38. 5k 1,500miles after 36k warranty. After dealership played parts changer for 3 weeks they finally worked up to the steering lock solenoid. Steering lock assm. $542 - $622 - #48700-jf00b production date: 2008. 10-2009. 08 - #48700-jf00c production date: 2009. 08-2009. 10 - #48700-jf00c production date: 2009. 10-2010. 09 - #48700-jf00d production date: 2010. 09- current (you want this one "d") obviously this part has gone through revisions. Total repair $837. 00 - 3 weeks in the shop. Had to have car towed to dealer after the "yellow" key light showed up. This part has failed on many Nissan models with this type of electronic steering wheel lock. This needs to be a recall and anyone who paid to have it fixed needs to be reimbursed. A class action lawsuit need to be filed.

Steering lock solenoid failed at 38120 miles (2120 miles outside electrical warranty) yellow "key" warning light on dash only illuminated the morning off failure. Went to leave work car would not start due to steering lock solenoid failure. Had to have vehicle flat bedded to dealership at the cost of $121. 10. Thank god this didn't fail while driving. This is a well know issue within the online forums / community. I'm currently requesting a full reimbursement from Nissan motor corp for the repair cost of $887. 37 plus the tow bill. I have recently returned to the online forums and have read over 25 pages of failures with the Nissan 370z. I also heard of this issue on Nissan gtr and maxima vehicles.
