    Just bought a 2012 - hit 8 bars today -wait out the warranty?

    Read the rest of the sentence. Even when the engine failure of the kind the poster I quoted was comparing to the Leaf's battery problems occurs (whether or not a rare event), most car manufacturers would fix it under warranty. In Nissan's case, you get stalling and stonewalling. I'll not...

    Yeah, but a new ICE car generally does not need a "major engine overhaul" or replacement after one year. And if it did it would generally be taken care of under warranty. That's the issue: Hey Nissan - fix it! I'll wager that Nissan can completely fix the problem without knowing a thing...

    You're right. Not "everyone" believes the lack of a temperature management system is the root cause of the Leaf's Li-ion battery losing capacity. Nissan doesn't, obviously. (Actually, I think they do, but are now in CYA mode.) However, it is very well known that Li-ion batteries are very...

    It certainly does seem as if the advisory board mentioned in the letter was intended to improve communication between owners and Nissan for the capacity issue as well as other issues of the same kind. My point is that Nissan already has a robust network of dealers who communicate fine if you...

    Nothing personal against Chelsea and Jeff, but the creation of the proposed "advisory board" is a well known smokescreen and delaying tactic. Nissan has a network of dealers who have been stonewalling their customers over an obvious product design defect. All it takes is a phone call to each...
