FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

I purchased by 2019 Nissan leaf brand new from a Nissan dealership. My electric vehicle is our only vehicle and has been effectively disabled for out of town driving by a safety recall for the traction battery for nearly a year. Nissan continues to be unable to repair or resolve this safety recall and has offered no alternatives other than telling me not to fast charge the vehicle for fear of it catching fire. I have spent countless hours talking to a regional specialist and then being escalated to an executive specialist both of which offer no resolution. I want my vehicle repaired and returned to the originally purchased function or repurchased by Nissan. With the multiple delays in repairing this safety recall up to a year now I have no faith in Nissan to reach any satisfactory repair. I no longer want to own or drive this vehicle and the fault lays entirely with Nissan for their handling of this concern. I fear for my families safety when driving or using this vehicle because of the stated risk of electric battery fire. Nissan continues to have failed to offer any repair or inspection of the battery to determine our risk of a vehicle battery fire.

The contact owns a 2019 Nissan Leaf. The contact received notice of NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V700000 (Electrical System) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The local dealer was contacted. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure.

Note: Searching for similar complaints I found them under "Engine", "Electrical", and "Fuel". There are many such complaints! My 2020 Nissan Leaf has been under a recall notice since September of 2024 (12 months ago). Nissan warned the battery may catch fire during level 3 (rapid) charging. Nissan ordered owners not to use rapid chargers until a fix was in place. Such a fix was (and still is) promised by March 2025. That date is 6 months past now and yet their website still proclaims it. This, to me, demonstrates that Nissan is not actively working on the problem. They seem content to have shifted the burden of dealing with the problem onto their customers. Rapid charging is not a luxury, especially with large capacity batteries. Fully charging the car in 2-3 hours instead of 10-12 hours is a key selling point of the vehicle. To remove it amounts to a bait and switch. One year is an extremely generous amount time to allow for a solution. Obviously, they want a software solition to avoid the high cost of replacing the batteries. Obviously, they can't find a software solution. It is time for them to be forced to accept the higher cost consequence of releasing a faulty product. P.S. During a phone conversation with Nissan customer service in late July, I was told (after many denials that anything was wrong with them proclaiming a fix in March 2025 in July 2025) that a fix would be available in November. As their site still says March 2025 I must assume that was a blatant lie to pacify me.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

I am currently using a 2019 NISSAN LEAF electric vehicle and the vehicle is still under NISSAN's 7-year warranty. In September 2024, Nissan sent me a notice advising me to temporarily stop fast charging the vehicle to avoid overheating the battery and possibly exploding and wait for them to fix the vehicle charger. Two months later, Nissan continued to send me a new notice and continued to schedule me until spring 2025. I still trusted and waited for them, in June 25 Nissan sent me a third notice to wait until the third quarter of this 25. Up to now, more than 9 months have passed but they still do not have spare parts to replace my vehicle and I still do not know if Nissan will have spare parts for my vehicle by the end of the third quarter of this 25? in the past 9 months, i have had to spend a lot of time every time i need to charge my car. just because i don't have my own house so i have to take my car to the charging station and every time i charge i have to wait for about 5 hours. i don't understand what nissan wants now? ‚ó¶
