Posting here for historical reference, location is question is currently offline:
https://www.plugshare.com/location/266774
I was able to successfully charge at that station 4 months or so ago. I plugged into the station with the Leaf turned off, and got an isolation fault error. Restarted the charge again, same fault. Called EVgo, reset the cabinet, plugged in again, same fault. Then I was told to try a different station in the area, and then I got the red screen in the car with an EV power error and no ability to drive the Leaf.
The dealer I took the Leaf to said when they got the car apart they smelled burning from the "power distribution module" and ended up replacing it under warranty. This same dealer also had to replace a second one in that same week.
According to the dealer, this has been an issue with chargers at Wawa gas stations, which (to my knowledge) are all EVgo chargers.
Not sure what else to do other than avoid EVgo chargers going forward... Which is tough since they are fairly prevalent on the east coast. Any ways to track down what was in that charging station that could have caused a problem? I think EVgo isn't going to be forthcoming with information given their role in this issue...
