Our 2018 Leaf S is our town car. I charged it overnight last night and looked at the estimated distance I could drive this morning. I don't care if it is accurate or not. It displays162 miles, which is the same as it was when it was new. The odometer shows 20785 miles. I am not interested in...

Email from Boulder Nissan Service Department: "At this time there is no fix for the recall. As soon as nissan has a repair path they will notify you by mail. They do not have a timeframe on when this will be available. "

My 2018 Leaf has had intermittent backup camera problems since it was new...black display. Slamming the rear hatch has always fixed the problem.

The weather channel was a little off. Instead of 2" of snow we have about 6" of heavy, wet snow with more coming down. My wife drove across town, Boulder, this afternoon and had no trouble at all even coming up a fairly steep, unplowed incline into our housing complex. I think I made a good...

Discount Tire had these in stock: NOKIAN TIRE ENCOMPASS AW01 205 /55 R16 91V SL BSW Item #89181 I bought them because I wanted tires with decent winter performance. Discount Tire is nearby and I like their service.
