    "Dead" when left in driveway - battery?

    Left my Leaf in my driveway for the past week. Temps around 20-35. When left battery had 55 odd miles. Went to move the car this AM. Battery had 45 miles. But car will not go into R. I have a yellow PS on the dash .. Power Steering? And an ominous RED Battery symbol. 12v Battery jump...

    Leased Leaf available for sublease.

    I have a 2012 Leaf, with approx 9,000 miles on it; "red". SL package. Perfect condition. Looking for someone to assume lease. Best offer over $290 per month gets it. I am in Illinois. Why am I parting with it? I got "her" in May 2012 knowing it was "training wheels" for my Tesla Model S...

    Disabling panic alarm?

    I need to find out if there is a way to disable the panic alarm; the red button on my remote control? Why? In the past several days, I have upset my neighbors by setting it off accidentally. The keys are in my pants pocket and somehow as I move in my desk chair, I set it off. This has...

    Charge light flashing when not charging?

    Ok, in 6 months, never seen this before. Car is in garage all night. 50 miles of "range" on it. Not plugged in. Get to car in the AM and the left most blue light in windshield area (from drivers least vantage) is flashing. Odd. Got in car, turned it on. Turned it off. Light has gone...

    Has $7,500 tax credit ended?

    Sorry, don't read these forums much ... Has the Leaf $7,500 tax "credit" ended. My local dealer tells me it has but that would mean that they've made over 200,000 (is that right?)

    Level 3 error - Charger did not detect vehicle

    About a month ago, I charged my car for the first time using L3. Ditto about a week later. Worked fine. Today I went to use an L3 for an "emergency top off" and no good. Swiped Charjit (350green) card, pressed Start, attached cord firmly. Pressed start and the battery icon started...

    Minor quirk ... anyone else have the problem in rain (doh) ... that the wipers hit the top part of the drivers side of the windscreen?

    External temperature delay ...

    My Leaf, when parked indoors says, for example 70 degrees outside temp. It's 100 degrees outside the garage. But it takes the readout at least 15-20 minutes of driving to become accurate. I also noticed this in my last car. Anyone else have this problem?

    Where is "woosh" speaker?

    Can someone direct me to where I can find the "whoosh" speaker; the one that makes the odd sound under 12 mph while you drive past people?

    How much electricity am I using?

    Should know this by now as I feel like a veteran (had mine for 1 month!) I recharge mine daily in my garage on my L2 charger. Do I need to add some hardware (like a private electric meter) to tell electricity consumption? Or is there some kind of log file I am not aware of yet that tells me...

    Where do the first 15 miles go?

    I've been looking for them. :) Every time I charge mine to 100%, I get in, turn her on and see about 115 miles. Within 1 mile, I am always down to 100. No matter direction, wind, ECO, window up / dn, no A/C. Where do they go?

    Level 3 maps inaccurate (Illinois)

    For those in NW suburbs of Chicago, IL, the level 3 charging map is not accurate. Not on the 350green.com site. To wit: Whole Foods, Schaumburg, is not even functional yet, despite the fact that it LOOKS active. Apparently WF have to relocate it so that it can get a cell signal. Neither...

    Shock absorber / suspension?

    Had mine 10 days and one thing that is bothering me is the back end. Granted, I went from a Lexus. But. Feels like the Leaf is not handling bumps in the road as well as I would expect. Almost as if a shock absorber is not working right. Feels like I am in a taxi that's got 150,000...

    ChargePoint now charging $$$

    I was under the impression that ChargePoint network charging is free for now? Several news articles have stated this. Yet I find in my CP account that I am being charged (next to nothing) ... but ... Are they really charging now or only some locations?

    Floor mats

    Searched under both floor and mat and came up empty handed. Can someone advise me what after market product is best suited for my LEAF? Front seats only probably.

    Back up camera in rain

    Drove Leaf for first time in rain today. Only problem found is the backup camera. It lacks any kind of shrouding. As such, rain drops easily gather on lens resulting in almost zero visibility til I get out and wipe it. Last car had camera but no issues with water. Anyone else with this...

    Sun visor

    Only complaint day 2 of use are the sun visors. Way too small and no "overlap" to protect driver from sun around rear view mirror. I will have to work on a simple workaround.

    XM problem

    Day 1 for me. Working on XM Radio. Surprised to hear BBC Radio 1, top 20. Came home and logged into XM web site. There are about 900 channels. 805 IS Radio 1. But in my car, cannot tune into anything over 100. Anyone know how to? Or is this US / European satellite issue?
