This is worth quoting so that more people see it.

It's important to note that not only is this a preventitive measure but IT CAN fix the issue if your lock mechanism has already failed. The only thing you will need is a rubber mallet and a bit of patience. Once your steering lock fails the steps are essentially the same. No clutch/brake, gently tap the lock mechanism with the rubber mallet while simaltaneously pushing the on button. If you're lucky(like I was) the lock will unseize and allow you to go into the "on" position. Once you're there follow the above steps.

When I called Nissan about this repair I was quoted $1180 not counting tow and rental car. F that fuse and pull that B out.
