Here's an update on my 2012 LEAF after I took it to the Dealer (Cool Springs Nissan, Franklin, TN) where I originally purchased the vehicle in December 2011. Vehicle has 55,000 miles. I asked for the following work to be done. 1. Recall Campaign P9312 Leaf Battery Plate Grounding Plate...

My LEAF has been in garage for several days; cold snap last night down to 25 deg F. This morning attempt to start indicated zero miles and lots of flashing lights on dash display. Figured the 12v battery was dead. It was. Charged the little battery up and car started right up. Now for my...

My 2012 Leaf just went over 50,000 miles. Aside from new tires and a new 12v battery, all is good -- except that the brakes "grab" even with the ABS turned off. Anyway, I really need your advice on what I should tell the Stealers to do when I take it in for the 50K service. If it need...

Back when I still had the telematic connection I could schedule a pre-heat with the car plugged in. Now, I have not been able to do so manually. Any advice step-by-step? Thanks in advance.

My charger is the original Blink kluge installed in Dec 2011. Works without a problem so far. My LEAF is a 2012 Sl delivered Dec 2011 (see my signature below). Is there any advantage in using the spare 50A 220/240 outlet in my garage with the modified cable which came with the LEAF...

My 2012 is getting long in tooth so to speak. I'm thinking about the 2020 LEAF. What are your candid thoughts on buying one? I'm wary of lease since I use the car to do everything including haul bales of hay and bags of fertilizer. I respect the great advice offered here over the years.

I have some damage to the fiber shields which go under my 2012 LEAF. The rear-most shield which covers the brake mechanism had to be completely removed as it was dragging on the ground. Local Stealer told me repair estimate would be "around $3,500" and require several weeks of down time. I'm...

For several days, each time I turn on the car, the screen displays a message " Battery Maintenance Due". I have made certain the settings for alert messages are in the "no" setting. Mileage at 42,000 miles. New 12 vdc battery installed last year. I made sure 12vdc is charged and terminals...

I just heard over my police monitor radio that a 3-car wreck occurred in a very busy intersection here in Brentwood. The police on scene reported that 3 vehicles were involved, all required towing and several people had injuries. One was a LEAF, no further info. Let's hope all are OK.

I've attempted to contact them for several weeks by telephone. The operator answers with an abrupt "Nissan" (unlike before which was a "Welcome to Nissan of Cool Springs, How May I Direct Your Call?") and when I ask for Service or Parts, clicks me onto the requested extension number. Then I...

Wx here is cold with ice storms and snow. Interstates blocked, etc. ran out of booze this weekend and was going to open up a can of Sterno, but remembered I had purchased a set of tire chains. Woo hoo, took about 10 mins to get them on while in garage. Drove the 6 miles to Whiskey store on...

we will be in San Diego staying at a mission beach resort over a long weekend in late October. How should I go about renting a Leaf while there? I appreciate your advice and assistance. I called a couple of rental company but they were clueless. .

Someplace here I've seen the "Nismo" stuff and a Leaf racing car. Are the panels on the racing version available? I really would like to pimp my Leaf, now that it is becoming soooooo common here in Brentwood. Like OMG I've seen three so far!! Dave

Brentwood to Bowling Green, KY Ideas on a round trip to Bowling Green from Brentwood. One way is 75.7 miles; none of the Cracker Barrels in BG have chargers yet neither do the Nissan dealers. I called and Johnson Nissan says theirs is "going to be installed real soon now". I'm thinking drive...

I have several hundred destinations and routes saved to the SD Card on my Garmin NUVI. I want to put them on the Leaf system. I would appreciate any advice or pointers or FAQ's. Regards, Dave

Hey gang, I've snagged some surplus bargains. 12 ea 240 Watt PV panels, slightly used; 6 ea 119 AH batteries originally used for a large data center UPS. I am looking at various 220V/60Hz inverters. Should be enough to charge the Leaf, eh? Your thoughts? Don't let me reinvent the wheel...

I've notice that some folks when posting a photo will obscure their license plate or the last 5 numbers of the VIN. I'm interested in knowing why you either do or don't. Even Paranoid People have Enemies, or so I've heard. Dave

I thought it best to start a new thread specific to discussing how Tennessee's Department of Revenue is dealing with the state rebate. According to the State of TN's Dept of Revenue website, the EV Purchase Rebate is official. Now, for the details: I, starting from zero knowledge, called the...
