Steering wheel problem. Motor grinding and stuttering.
Mine just started acting up, I have 37k and no extended warranty. FML. Can I disable it all together? I assume the TSB ont help and I still gotta pay for it. I have an 09 SV sport without nav or tech.

Perhaps if enough of these steering column motors failed during warranty Nissan will realize that it needs to build a more a robust system to protect its bottom line and reputation.
PS I had several Honda Accords and drove them to about 200,000 miles with basically routin maintainance. Hope my 2012 Maxima comes close to that.

I really like the auto-tilt wheel and sliding seat feature of the Maxima. It's hard for me to get in smoothely when the seat and wheel are at my preferred setting. Opening the cabin up makes it easier to get in and out.
I have noticed that when I start my car and let it warm up, it's harder to get in and out as the car moves to the drive setting. My workaround was to program memory setting 2 as a wide open tilt and seat slide. This way, even with the car running, I can quickly open up the cabin and step out.

I contiplated disabling it but then thought this is a feature I wanted with this car, disabling it now (when it's work fine) just so it won't break later is not going to happen.
If it goes out later I'll just pay to get it fixed.

I am just curious. How much of the $1100 was parts and how much was labor? Is the $214 part OEM, or 3rd party?

I found the part here, its # 9.
