Any ideas on how I can get it unstuck and drive it to the dealer?

Tried the first few remedys in the DIY and no luck...

Call a tow truck as there is no fix for it when it locks. The dealer will have to replace the lock with a new one

Hit it with the hammer and hope. I put the harness in last year. Hopefully with Dan's post you will only need to pay for the tow if it is necessary.

that does seem about 10 to 15 degrees higher than me

agreed. have seen a couple people get it to come lose by tapping it a few times. if it does, keep the car on and pull that fuse ASAP!

its covered by warranty, the issue is getting it to the dealership.

I beat on it with a hammer for a while last night with no luck.

Right now its stuck in the bottom floor of a parking garage with a tiny roof clearance so it cant be towed out.

Only way out is a back exit gate which is blocked by a massive pile of snow. Trying to get something out there to clear the snow right now.

This sucks.

Here is what I saw. I believe the poster is a Nissan Dealer in St. Louis.

Wow that does suck.

Well I guess there is a bright side of it...it's covered under the warranty.

update: The properties folks said they would have the snow cleared out by 2pm and I have a tow truck that should be showing up at 2.

Now just have to make a few small turns with the steering locked...
