if you had the lock failure be sure to file a complaint here

https://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/ivoq/index.cfm

there have been many reports of this failure on this forum alone if everyone files the complaint the government will force the recall

I didn't really have time to read through all the info on that site, but it seems its for safety complaints. I don't know if this particular issue will considered a safety issue.

I would think anytime a major component on an automobile fails it could be considered a safety issue

Worth a shot. Even though mine hasn't failed (yet) I'll still make a complaint

In case anyone's interested, pretty much all 40ths were built between December and February:

+-------+-------------+-----------------+-----+
| Prod  | VIN         | Range           | Num |
+-------+-------------+-----------------+-----+
| 12/09 | JN1AZ4EH_AM | 501627 - 501817 | 184 |
| 01/10 | JN1AZ4EH_AM | 501819 - 502520 | 622 |
| 02/10 | JN1AZ4EH_AM | 502522 - 502758 | 194 |
+-------+-------------+-----------------+-----+


There were a few built outside that range, but these are the 1000 for North America (US).

(sorry to thread-jack)

Sorry to say, it looks like Feb 2010, is still within failure range.
