The Leaf finally needs rear brake pads and the Nissan Service and Maintenance Guide only calls for inspections, rotating the tires, replacing the brake fluid and the in-cabin air filter. That's all the way out to 120,000 miles.
Nothing else? Nothing to grease? No other PM of any kind?
I ask because I've previously discovered that the no maintenance batteries for ICE cars are anything but and that there were hidden grease fittings that really did need to be greased in various equipment I've owned that the manufacturer never told users about perhaps figuring they wouldn't grease them anyway.
So all you experts out there is there anything besides replaces the pads, changing the fluid and doing an inspection that you guys know about and think needs doing?
I'm at close to 60,000 miles and despite the drastic loss of range I'd like to keep the car well maintained if for no other reason because child number 2 will be getting his license soon and all he needs is a vehicle that can get him the 4 miles to school every day.
