Just a reminder for those who have a 2011 or older 370, get the harness, pull the fuse, or snip the wire. They do NOT have a version of this lock that won't eventually leave you stranded. Their answer to the issue was not to use the part anymore on 12 and newer models. Even if you have had yours replaced you still need to do the above.

I thought this was only an 09-10 issue?

All years with the lock installed which I'm pretty sure is 09-11.

The campaign states that they will only repair for 2009-2010 370z and 2009-2011 GTR's. I know that in the steering wheel lock thread that some ppl mentioned that very early 2011 would have issues as well.

APPLIED VEHICLES: 2009 – 2010 370Z (Z34)
INTRODUCTION

Check Service COMM to confirm campaign eligibility.
Nissan is conducting a Voluntary Service Campaign to replace the steering lock assembly on certain specific 2009 – 2010 model year 370Z and 2009 – 2011 model year GTR vehicles due to excessive oil within the assembly, which could cause the Body Control Module (BCM) to prevent the engine from starting when the ignition is cycled. This issue does not affect steering or engine operation when the vehicle is already running.

Nissan has assigned identification number P3208 to this campaign. This number must appear on all communications and documentation of any nature dealing with this campaign.
