Hello..I have that Electronic Steering Lock issue. Its at the dealership now. 850 to fix. The part is on back order, well for this specific dealership. I called another dealership and they have 3 but they are only selling them to customers because they are so hard to come by. I am most likely going to just buy the part .Are there any threads that show me how to replace it and whats needed? I was told its not that hard but was just wondering.

IIRC, it should be free since Nissan issued a recall on the part.

Selling? Oh hell, no; that is downright dirty practice. You smack 'em in the face with this service campaign code: P3208 Campaign Announcement Campaign Bulletin NTB13-014.

yah, check the diy section. i did a diy 2yrs ago.

but as other have noted, there is a recall for this and you shouldnt have to pay a dime. also noted on my diy.

after you get the fix, make sure you read up on the brown wire cut/fuse pull.

btw, my diy also suggested to use pliers...

Im currently going back and forth with Nissan now..i actually have an 2010 Maxima(i know wrong forum,but theres no good Maxima forums like this Z forum)...They are not extending the warranty as of yet. I dont think they are going to budge and i need my car, so im going to just take care of it myself...thanks for the info

er.....okay, you neglected that little detail

good luck, but you might be SOL since the recall didn't extend to other model years IIRC
