Well I am happy to say, Nissan is finally doing things right. Starting April first, nissan has opened a service campaign for the Steering lock issues in the 2009. I've had this issue with my max and had to spend $860 just to fix it..there will be instructions on how to apply for reimbursment if u paid for repairs on nissan assist.com or just call nissan corp..FYI my refund is in process !!!! Just thought I'd give a heads up

 

Awesome information - thanks for sharing, I'm going to link this in the other thread.

 

^ Where is this info now?
They covered the labor...but not the part cost for me...i wonder if they would issue a refund...

 

I fixed mine on my own with the tap method, but taking it to the dealer Tuesday to have them repair it for free now.
