Windshield squirter nozzles that actually put the washer fluid on the windshield :(

I spoke to my local Nissan dealer today about a battery replacement for my 2015 leaf with 24KWH battery. The guy at the service desk looked confused, told me it was a 24V battery and that it would cost $15K to replace it. When I looked skeptical, he admitted that he didn't know what he was...

I just replaced the stock Ecopia EP422's on my 2015 S model with the EP422 plus units... I got 56K miles out of the originals. They had reached the point where most of the wear bars were touching, and the outer bit of tread (outside the last rain groove) was basically a slick. Needless to...

Sorry, I don't check in very often... I'm in east Tennessee. The winters aren't too awful cold. The summers can get pretty hot, and I parked in an asphalt parking lot in direct sun all day 5-days a week. The car lives outside. I don't have a garage. But, there is an aluminum shade thing...

It finally happened. I lost the first bar on my 2015 Lizard battery. 49,500 miles, 2 years and 10 months old. I'm not entirely unhappy with that. It can still do all the things that I need it to do, and will likely be able to do so with a couple more lost bars. mike

I've had my 2015 S model since June of 2015. After 2.5 years and 45K miles, I've still got 12 bars, and no range complaints. I suspect that east Tennessee has a fairly favorable climate for battery life. I'm not complaining :) mike

Hi all, I worked in a factory that makes oem windshields for many years. As a matter of fact, we made a lot of Nissan parts. Just thought I'd chime in on the subject... I wouldn't worry about the safety of aftermarket windshields. All of the manufacturers are required to prove, and...

I've read the horror stories about using the Nissan slime fix. So, one of the first things I did when I got my Leaf was to put a sticky-yarn plug kit in the little compartment with the compressor. I actually had to use it the other day. But, the puncture was a small nail that wasn't leaking...

I'll take a crack at this... 1. I chose a plug-in EV because I like the idea of keeping things simple. I chose the leaf because it is the only one with a halfway reasonable price tag. 2. EVSE cost depends mostly on whether you can do it yourself. Figure on $600 if you only have to buy...

With regard to the cell phone windshield question... We've been hanging rear view mirrors on windshields for decades without any significant breakage. Nowadays we are hanging rain sensors and lane cameras on them as well. I'm fairly certain that the weight of a cell phone isn't going to...

I wouldn't expect any significant loss in the drive battery from maintaining the 12v battery. I seem to recall that the manual warns against leaving the car for long periods in a fully discharged or a fully charged state. But that has more to do with the overall health of the battery than any...
