I just broke the gray plastic piece that houses the cruise control/volume control and I was wondering if anyone ever got that part replaced and how much it costs.. here's a picture of it:

 

Since you have an 06, I'd goto the dealer and say the Sh*t just broke!!! and be pissed.

 

lol

 

It shouldnt cost too much. It is just a peice of cheap plastic used on tons of Nissan products.

 

He's got an 05 but I'd still go back to the dealer and see if they will fix for free. If not, it's probably a $5-$10 part.

 

lol thanks for the info guys.. I know I have to go to the dealership to get it replaced but I really hope it's not something that's going to take a week to fix.. they'll probably have to order it or something.

 

I just spoke with someone from my dealership and he told me in order to replace the part I would have to buy a whole new steering wheel LOL $750 dollars...

 

sorry but i found that pretty funny LOL I literally laughed out loud.

 

Ive got a tropical island in Alaska to sell you if you're interested...

 

for $750, I'll get it fixed asap ...lol ..sorry to hear it man ...just curious, what did u do that cause it to break?

 

How old is your car? And are there any other dealers in your area. When small things broke on my car. Cracked mirror, Door sills, the dealer just replaced them FoC???

 

I have a JDM steering wheel for sale. Although it has blanks on either side of the airbag inflator module. This pic is with the USDM airbag inflator module cover.

 

After revisiting this thread, if you still have the piece that broke off... superglue that sucker back on!
(ill charge you $50 for the tip)

 

From what I recall, someone inquired about this as the 2005's hit the streets. Being that they are different from the 03-04 switches (beginning in '05 they are backlit) they are now available, each side, as an individual part.

Someone please confirm. I'm almost 100% certain of this. I specifically remember the thread because owners of other Nissan products had complained about the silver finish wearing off and I was not looking forward to paying an arm and a leg to replace worn-out-looking steering wheel controls!

 

Well like I've said in the previous posts.. I went to the stealership yesterday and the manager told me that it's not covered under warranty and they would have to order a whole new steering wheel (and this time I got quoted $800). I was talking to the mechanic who did my oil change and he said the 05-06 steering wheels are different from the 03-04's (slightly) and does not come as parts.. basically told me the same thing.. but he said I should try searching for a steering wheel at a junk yard or ebay (without an airbag since that's the most expensive part)...
