I have found 4 complaints on the internet. They took me a mere few minutes to find. I think this trend will continue and start to grow.

2009 Nissan 370Z Steering Complaints

Unfortunately, many don't report the problem on National Recall site, thus, government is not compelled to take action and investigate. The problem is widespread, dealers know it, owners know.. sooner or later, owners w/ ver "A", "B", and likely "C" will encounter the failure.

Like you said, the exact same part failed on GT-R, yet, those cars got an immediate response. I am still mystified why 370z part hasn't been recalled.

As much as I like my Z, this will be my family's last Nissan. Fun car, but dealing w/ service departments, and constantly making them understand the issue is quite frustrating.
