Problem is the anti theft module located on the steering column has malfunctioned for my wife’s 2010 Nissan Cube keyless ignition. Vehicle would not restart for my wife after sitting for 5 hours, luckily she was not way off somewhere. From what I’ve seen Nissan did a recall of a similar defective module on other models but did not include the Cube. Nissan doesn’t even have the parts readily available for repair. Vehicle has been sitting at a repair shop for over a month now. This should be a safety issue as it could leave people totally stranded in the middle of nowhere with no meaningful way to repair the vehicle. The part number of the module is 487001 FA0C. It is believed that Nissan did not recall the Cube because of the low quantity of vehicles manufactured in relation to the other problem models.

MY VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO MY MECHANIC WHERE HIS COMPUTER DIAGNOSTIC FOUND THE PROBLEM TO BE THE STEERING MODULE THAT STARTS THE VEHICLE. I HAD TO HAVE IT REPLACED AT MY COST OF $971.00. MY MECHANIC INFORMED ME THAT THIS SAME PROBLEM WAS PREVALENT IN THE YEAR PRIOR TO MINE AND THAT THEY WERE BEING REPAIRED BY THE MANUFACTURER. I CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO CAMPAIGN FOR MY PARTICULAR VIN NUMBER. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THE YEAR PRIOR TO MINE IS COVERED BUT MINE IS NOT. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF THE VEHICLE AND I HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE SERVICED AS REQUIRED THROUGH THE DEALERSHIP ORIGINALLY, THEN CONTINUED BY MY MECHANIC. I WOULD LIKE TO FILE A COMPLAINT AGAINST THIS MANUFACTURER TO GET REIMBURSED FOR THIS DEFECT.

I was washing my car by hand and I was washing the driver's side rear view mirror and pivoted it away from the normal position so I could clean it better. When put it back to it's normal position, the hinge broke. When I looked closely at the hinge, I noticed that the hinge pretty much disintegrated, so it was just a matter of time before it broke. It could've broken off on the highway and been blown off, possibly damaging the vehicle or another vehicle, as the mirror was only hanging by the wires at that point. Also you can't drive a car without a driver's side mirror. I removed the mirror after I got done washing the car, so it wouldn't fall off and hit the car. I then ordered replacements for both the driver's side and passenger's side outside mirrors, including both the plain matte black covers, and the pre-primed covers, as I don't have to rush in getting the pre-primed covers painted to match the covers on the old mirrors. I attached the invoice for the replacements. The invoice doesn't include the cost of having the covers painted. I don't think the probably needs somebody else to confirm it, as the mirror is clearly separated from the bracket. The passenger's side mirror is showing the signs of starting to disintegrate, and both mirrors are available for inspection. Nobody else has inspected the mirrors. I tried to let the manufacturer know about it, but my email to them was bounced back as undeliverable. There were no symptoms of the problem prior to failure. The pictures of the mirror on the workbench are of the driver's side mirror, while the pictures of the mirror on the car are of the passenger's side mirror. I also included a picture of the odometer reading.
