    I am planning to put my Blink unit for sale, so I was wondering if there is some process that I need to follow since Blink was purchased by another company?

    I got a parking ticket while I was charging the car in the EV spot for not paying the regular parking fee. I've talked to officer who wrote ticket and she claimed that all vehicles pay the fee, but I told that signage isn't clear. The EV spot says "No parking except for electrical vehicle...

    I am moving and will have to bring BLINK unit with me. Did anyone go through this with BLINK? Do I have to hire an electrician to install it at the new place or EV Project provides that?

    Leaf was replaced with Volt, but I still have Blink which is actively used, so I wonder if I need to return it or I am ok to keep it?

    The unofficial Leaf dropout thread

    12k miles and 16 month of ownership have been great. Actually first 6 month were the best when Leaf was still a novelty. I was quite the opposite with the range anxiety which was absent initially, it developed much later as I was learning that to get the most out of it in my area I have drive it...

    "Crunchy" brake pedal sound?

    Is everyone else have what I could best describe as "crunchy" or "clickie" sound when you press the brake pedal? I've had this sound ever since I had the car and at times it gets annoying because the rest of the driving experience is quiet.

    A close call...

    I had an incident today that almost could have been an accident. I was simply turning left on a green arrow and I needed to be in the far right lane, so I could make a right turn right after. The guy in the incoming traffic had red light and was turning right and I thought he would let me pass...

    Battery degradation anxiety

    So range anxiety was easily overcome, but seeing posts about possible reduced range I am starting to think we might have new kind of anxiety that would only increase over time... How do you deal with it? :D

    Automatic headlights sensor too sensitive

    I am not sure if it's due my tint or its by design, but I am finding that leaving headlights in automatic mode will result in lights going on/off unnecessarily. Most of the times it happens in overcast days and especially driving under bridges. I like automatic feature, but I feel like I am...

    80% charging issue - 12:00 am charge

    "Charging stopped" twice anyone?

    I have BLINK unit and charge always to 80%. I noticed that recently I started having Blink send me 2nd email a few hours later with "Charging stopped" message. Blink unit shows that charging started and stopped, but with 0 change for all charging stats. Anyone else have this issue?

    I've seen the post about buzzing http://www.mynissanleaf.com/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=2921 but decided to post separate one with sound just to make sure I am not imagining things. The sound coming out mainly from the area where I zoomed. Is everyone else hearing the same thing? There was some camera...

    Bizarre regen/brakes issue!

    Earlier today my Leaf got "stuck" from the start in some sort of brake/regen mode and brakes were much harder to push. Basically, if I let go of accelerator on the flat surface my car immediately would start braking with 4 regen bars. I drove like that for couple of miles then stopped and...

    According to the blog below they say battery replacement cost rumored at $15-$18k which seems awfully high. I thought I read a while back it was $10k. http://green.autoblog.com/2011/05/02/this-is-what-its-like-to-live-with-the-nissan-leaf/

    SOC bars cannot be trusted?

    I just experienced something unexpected to me. Charged my car to 80% and drove on ECO mode to grocery store for .9 miles at 25 mph and as I parked I lost 1 bar. Range estimator started with 80 but on the way back showed 82. It kind of bothered me because I drove as efficient as possible and...
