There are several DIYs on a possible fix to your problem (in a nutshell: beat the crap out of it until it unlocks and then pull the fuse). Search this site for "ESCL", "steering lock", "pull the fuse", etc. I prefer to go to DuckDuckGo (or any other major search engine) and add "site:the370z.com" to my search string (eg, "ESCL site:the370z.com").
The vehicle was towed to the Nissan Dealership late in the afternoon yesterday. If in fact, the ESCL has failed (I am almost 100% sure this is the problem) do I have any chance at all of having part, or all of the repair covered? My car is at the same dealership that replaced the first ESCL.

I doubt it but you need to ask the dealer. If you don't like the dealer's answer, contact Nissan USA.
