I haven't seen the list of affected VINs, but it is my understanding that the recall is for all 2009-2010 370Zs. Call another dealer and ask.

Mine is also a 6/10 build and I called 2 dealers in my area with the VIN number and I also called Nissan customer service and no recall for my vehicle.

Looks like I misunderstood.

Just a wild guess, but it could be that your Z came with a Rev D ESCL (SLU). You might want to look at the ESCL label and check. If it's not a Rev D, pitch a fit with Nissan.

Yeah it's Rev C. I think two versions of a Rev C came out before D. So we have the second verion of Rev C lock I assume. So it might be the early 2010's that has the recalls who knows but you right Nissan should do all 2010's.

There have been enough Rev C failures reported that I would be concerned.

First I've heard of two versions of Rev C. Something doesn't sound quite right about that. Why wouldn't they call "Rev C version 2" "Rev D"? You could be right - this whole ESCL (SLU) debacle is bewildering to me.
