    Software Update Letter

    I have received the letter also, but then it went in the shredder by mistake while cleaning up my old mail. Would anyone be so nice to post a scanned copy or a link where I can download a copy? thanks! BTW: I had the PDM issue and the whole PDM replaced last summer. I think my software is...

    Bad Power Distribution Module? Check In Here

    Thanks for the info guys. At least now we can say that the PDM has not failed in all 2013 models, although there has been a widespread issue with the PDM as we see all the reports in this thread. Also, for sure we know it's not user error or user misuse. In fact we can see that after the repair...

    I am glad to have been proved wrong. 5100 miles is still not a big number, though to be considered out of the woods. I hope you won't experience the PDM failure. I don't know how to explain the problem differently. Could it be that you had the software update to your PDM?

    Hi all, I wanted to give you an update on my 2013SL with a bad PDM. I got the car back two weeks ago, after 2 weeks in the shop. So far so good. I have been using the car quite a lot and everything looks fine. My understanding is that there is a software issue that causes the PDM to fail and...

    That appears to be correct. It's a 2013 issue and I start to think it affects all 2013 models before the 3000 miles, like clockwork. Nissan should make sure all cars in the dealers lot are updated before selling them and also recall all 2013 cars that were sold. Being proactive would save them...

    Welcome to the bad PDM club!! At least you know you are not alone. I am in my second week without my car waiting for a good PDM to be installed.... BTW, you were lucky!! Mine stopped charging all in a sudden. It would not start charging at all. Luckily I had 40 miles in the "tank" and I made it...

    Update on my PDU replacement status. We are at day 10, and it was supposed to be the day I was going to have my car back. Instead the dealer informed me that the PDU they received had some water tube that was damaged and they will have to order another one. I am of course disappointed. The...

    Update on my car. Looks like Nissan has contacted the dealer and is sending them the PDM directly. PDM should be at dealer by tomorrow and car ready by end of day or next day top. I just wonder why Nissan won't recall all Leafs and replace the PDM. It is clear that it basically affects most of...

    Thanks for the suggestion. I just did. It looks like they know what they talk about at the EV line. They guy said he will jump on it right away. I will let everyone know how it goes.

    Nissan 2013 SL, 2300 miles, two months into the lease. This is my second time in a month that I take the car to the shop. First it was the gas pedal assembly which was fixed in one day. Now, the car does not charge. I told the leaf tech that I read about problems with the PDM in the forum but...

    2013 Nissan Leaf - Trottle stuck, gas pedal useless

    To answer a previous question. The brakes were able to overcome the throttle, so I had two ways of keeping the car speed at guard: One was the brakes and the other the ECO button. I just choose the ECO button to "preserve" the brakes. My wife came immediately to pick-up my daughter as I stopped...

    2013 Nissan Leaf - Trottle stuck, gas pedal useless

    All, I got the car back and they fixed it. Here's the technician description which confirmed mine: "THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE IN ECO MODE. TOOK IT OUT INTO REGULAR OR REVERSE AND IT RACES" The repair description is: "1388 INTERNAL FAILUR OPEN CIRCUIT. CONSULT TEST CODES" "P2122,2127,2138...

    2013 Nissan Leaf - Trottle stuck, gas pedal useless

    I am sorry but there is nothing wrong with my description. That was the actual car behavior. The dealer just left me a message that the car is ready and they had to replace some kind of assembly. I will post the correct findings once I get the dealer paper. I am an enthusiast of the electric...

    2013 Nissan Leaf - Trottle stuck, gas pedal useless

    I sure will keep you posted. Maybe it's a problem with my car only, a one off software issue. I just wanted to let everybody know, just in case someone else experiences something similar.
