My PD said Nissan had pulled/cancelled all demos so they could get them to customers. Given the context of the conversation, I believe him.

Well, my dashboard has been on May 30th for awhile, then out of the blue, it changed to June 3rd. I then got the 7 day email. I called Nissan CS this morning to try and find out what was going on, they said it was at the port waiting for delivery. I figured I would have to move to the June...

I agree completely. This definitely feels like a unilateral change in the agreement. In fact I am not entirely certain they can do this. I was already accepted into the program and quoted for the install; can they really change the conditions at this point? Any lawyers want to chime in?

It is not just people with solar getting screwed, it's anyone with out-of-pocket costs. In my case the install was $2100, which meant my out-of-pocket was $900. This also did not include repair of a walkway that SunWest needs to remove to install the power line. I could have used the LADWP...

You should read this thread: http://www.mynissanleaf.com/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=3750 It looks like it is Ecotality not LADWP.

Well, I have now spoken with four people at LADWP including Walter and they all have stated that a second meter is not required. It appears that it is ecotality that is pushing for the second meter and rebate. I also wonder if they are trying to get out of having to pay for installation. In my...

I have been told that LADWP and ECOtality continue to have "high-level talks" to hash out better coordination of the installs. No word on when they will announce anything. In the meantime, I had Walter from LADWP come out and perform a 2nd meter check yesterday, 5/11. My Blink was supposed to...

Yep, I spoke with Mr. Harper and got the same basic response; the only exception being that you don't have to get an inspection, but they recommend it. I also made calls to SunWest and ECOtality, but was unable to connect.

I was aware of the same thing; that you could choose a second meter or go with whole-house TOU. I was also aware of the 2nd meter requirement for the $2k rebate. The notion of possibly mandating the 2nd meter, thus leading to putting things on hold was a surprise. I appreciate your forwarding...

Our Blink was supposed to be installed on 5/12. But today (5/5) we got a call from Southwest Electric, canceling our install. They said all Blink installs are on hold because LADWP is thinking of mandating a second meter. I knew that they wanted people to get second meters, but the whole...

I got my vin today (in my updated signature) when I went to register on carwings. However, that didn't go as smoothly. Apparently, my VIN and the communications system for the car weren't registered properly at the factory. I called Nissan CS and they were very helpful. They explained what...

Glad I read cbiwww's post today. No email, notification, call etc. Just checked the portal this morning and magically, I now have a week of 5/30. I was in Month of May limbo for awhile. So, we will see if it sticks (not holding my breath). I did figure that something would have to happen...

I don't have my leaf yet, but that has got to be a mistake. Actually, I'm not sure which is worse; a piece missing (poor assembly and QA) or it being designed that way. Hopefully, more can confirm with photos.

1. Lack of transparency in order fulfillment 2. The a/c issue 3. The reality behind the 80% - 100% charge and whether the battery pack is truly 24kwh or 27kwh and whether 100% charge is really 100% or 100% of some consumer safe defined amount of charge. 4. The report of fast change to turtle...

I just got my ... "congratulations! Your vehicle is scheduled to arrive at your Nissan Dealer in the month of May 2011" email. Considering everything that has been happening in Japan, I figured the odds were that I would be waiting multiple months. So, now I get to help Japan via my donation...
