Can anyone point me to a reasonable replacement for this piece? The small charge port release handle near the hood release broke off when my wife tried to use for the first time thinking it required the same type of pressure as the hood release. Thank you!

First, thank you to all of you who read these and offer your advice! My driver side window has been slow and I thought it was a battery related issue, but I the passenger side window doesn't have any issue going up quickly. I am wondering if anyone has any idea as to why this is happening.

Thank you for the replies!

Would anyone know of any issues in connecting a battery maintainer to the 12V? Car is only used for occasional short trips and the 12V is bit low, i have a very nice 12V battery maintainer that is supposed to bring the battery back to full capacity, I am wondering if there is any reason anyone...

I believe I made the photos public. Thanks for your opinions.

Wasn't able to copy the image directly here is a link. Thanks again for checking it out and telling me what you think.

Thanks for your reply. Definitely not a bubble. Best way to describe it would be one claw of a small hammer put a gash about a half inch long but the metal underneath popped out where it was gashed. But being the way that one appeared in the exact same spot and position on the opposite...

My ocean blue leaf is in mint condition and still looks great. Right underneath the red deflector on the rear fender a "pop" appeared. I thought that someone had taken and given it a tap with the claw side of a hammer. Its about the size of one of the teeth. Then today, the same exact...

My older model leaf is in mint condition and gets *extremely* light usage. No freeway, very low miles, always garaged and only used for a few small trips per week. After 4 years of never having an issue I contacted the local Nissan dealer to inquire about the battery warranty. My vehicle...

Is the gas generator aspect of the VOLT something that will require the maintenance of a regular car? Or is it more like the Leaf with all electric drive train etc that requires very little to no maintenance? Thanks again!

Thanks for the responses, at this point hoping someone may have done this (i.e. used the tool in the trunk to manually release the parking brake) and they can chime in here about how many times they had to crank it and if once its released it stays released.

Has anyone ever had to do this or can point me to a video of someone doing it with the 2012 Leaf? Hoping to get some reference, it seems easy enough following the instructions in the manual, but I turned it many, many times while it was pressed in and I heard it releasing in parts 3 times...

Can anyone point me to information on whether I am entitled to have my Leaf reprogrammed in terms of when it charges the 12V battery? I searched around the forums but couldn't find anything. From my understanding it charges on Thurs and Sunday or something to that effect, and this often...

Sounds like a safety component in the emergency brake is releasing, possibly from no longer travelling uphill. I've heard that same noise a few times when I tried to take off too quickly after starting the car and releasing the emergency brake, where the brake didn't release and I had to...

As it turns out I had inserted the battery upside down (due to having done it before and thought I'd remembered correctly) With new batteries it seems so far that my issues are solved. Thanks for all your help! Edit: Interestingly enough it wasn't until I replaced the battery with my other...
