Nissan Qashqai Micra Note Lock problem FIX with needle file?

Hello. This week we are having a look at the problem with Nissan Qashqai, Nissan Micra and Nissan Note ignition Locks.

These have a problem where a sharp edge develops inside the lock over time. When this happens, the key is very hard to remove.

We've read about the suggested fix of putting a small needle file into the lock and filing the sharp edge. This week we were sent a lock that already had a broken needle file inside!

The piece of the Nissan lock that gets a sharp edge inside is a very important piece. It allows the central locking to work along with the steering lock. It should never be removed!
