After that day all my other buttons on my steering wheel slowly started to stop working. Then while I was driving last night on a city street a car was going to come into my lane while and I went to honk my horn and it no longer worked.”
NHTSA complaint #11152127, filed 2018-11, 145,000 miles“Backing out of the drive way the power steering would make a noise and momentarily catch. This happened for about10 days and I took it to my car repair shop and the power steering fluid was leaking on the inside of the vehicle and the electronic control panel was malfunctioning. I was told I needed a new electronic column assembly. I had it toed to the Nissan dealer.”
NHTSA complaint #10667163, filed 2014-12, 42,000 miles“My car would not start up. All gauges were fluttering and flickering, door locks were locking and unlocking rapidly, then the car went dead. Gave it jump and it started. Next day it died again, gave it a jump and it started. While I was driving it shut off suddenly and completely, giving me no time to steer. The car was dead again. Replaced the battery and problem still exists. Very dangerous to be driving and have the car just stop completely. I'm lucky I wasn't hit.”

I pulled the wheel back to the left and was absolutely freaked out by what had happened. Last evening all of a sudden I turn my car off go into a store come out an hour later and nothing at all when I turned the ignition key. No lights no dash lights no noise at all is was as if battery was completely dead. New battery installed 4 months ago. …”
