Just noticed the 4th bar has gone. Not sure how to tell the precise date and time. I stopped using the LeapSpy Pro regularly a while back. AHr 43.13 SOH 65% ODO 60,264 Mi HX 44.6% Delivery date 8/26/2011 Short historical AHr: Aug 2017 43.8 Jan 2017 46.0 Aug 2016 46.4 I'm out of capacity...

It's been a while since I posted. I took delivery in August 2011. I knew when I bought this car that I would be the first and the last owner! For the first three years my wife drove it 60 miles daily down to San Jose and back, taking advantage of the diamond lane on 101. The car sat under...

Not entirely true. We are going to get a $50 check each. Right? Can't wait to get mine. :lol: How do you plan to spend it? Speaking of degredation, it's been a while since I posted. My 4th anniversary is two days away. 52K miles 49.5 AHr 212 Gids 2 bars down Degredation doesn't seem as...

I looked again and it's rust for sure. I'll post again when the roof caves in :lol: may be I should go for a cabrio option!

A couple of days ago I spotted what looked like a couple of tiny specs of dirt on the roof of my ocean blue 2011 SL. When I examined it closely, I was shocked to discover it was rust. In this part of California rust is unheard of. In twenty years, I have not owned a car here that developed rust...

No. It's specifically addressed to those who opted out.

The tsb is a temporary fix anyway. I had it applied about a couple of years ago but the problem returned recently. I went back to the dealer and now they want $160 to reprogram. In my case the problem went away by itself as soon as my 16 year old twins started driving lessons on this car. Looks...

Ditto here. How about we collaborate on a small claims court package, then we synchronize the filings. Even if we all fail, it will send a strong message. Get the press involved. Leverage social media. We may be too small a group for a class action but we don't need that to make our voice heard.

I don't think you fully appreciate the situation of the present owners. Those who opted out the first time and who might opt out again, given another chance, are likely doing this because they want to keep their cars. I'm one of them. Even if my car had ten miles of range, I could still go to...

Now that it looks like we'll all be opting back in (or most of us)... I expect to lose my 4th bar just after the end of the warranty period. I haven't seen an advantage for me to opt in this time. Am I in the minority? If that's the case, the prospects for those like me, appear very dim. If...

Reporting another loss... The 2nd capacity bar retired for good a couple of days ago. 51.6 Ahr Gids: 220 @100% charge 46,500 miles & 39 months. At this rate I'll lose one bar next fall/winter and another during the fall/winter of 2016. On track to miss the degradation warranty. I'm hopeful...

@drees, Thanks for the offer. I live in a cooler part of the SF Bay area and am in a similar situation. I am down one capacity bar and expecting the second one to drop shortly. I will probably miss the warranty deadline by a few months - one of the reasons I opted out.

I will probably miss the extended warranty by a few months but am still planning to stick it out to the bitter end. I bought mine and opted out of the class action. Hopefully it won't come to more legal wrangling but it has to, so be it.

My 12th bar also vanished as of yesterday. Here are the details. City: San Mateo, CA Miles/kWh: 4.2 Days/Week in Sun: 7 Manufacture Date: May 2011 Date of Delivery: August 2011 Date of Bar Loss and Reading: 10/27/13 Actual Capacity (Ah): 55.66 Total Mileage: 33,204 L1/L2= 1230 QC=2
