U can't operate any function or feature of the car. It's sucks. Talked to the dealer. After they check or diagnose my car. They disassembly the steering lock and doing diagnose by Tom morning they will call me back. So he said most likely that's the problem and will cover by warranty. And I believe this is not the first Nissan car had same problem that's y they check the steering lock.

Got the problem. The dealer called and said the problem was "body control module" consider a brain of the car? Thats what i heard from him... and that's also the main caused of "steering lock" so if they going to replace it. Then my car won't have a problem of steering lock issue?

That would be the newest revision. Rev D was the last known revision prior to your information. Thanks for the info.

What year is your car? That's the first documented case on this forum of Rev D failing. Nissan was using Rev D as replacements for the GTR steering lock recall.

Sorry for the low quality. Just took it with my iPhone front camera.
