Actually, the 2012 my wife is driving has 33,000 miles on it. I bought her another 2012 s.v. several years ago and that car had had a battery swap under warranty. The first owner then went out and wrecked the car right after the swap and it was totaled. We bought the car after it had been...

Yes, the original battery was replaced under warranty at a little over 60,000 miles

We are located in Southern middle Tennessee Temps here pretty mild with the occasional cold snap (have seen it -5) and we do have some heat in the summer but not as bad as other areas

I have a sad wife. A couple of days ago her capacity meter dropped the first bar. I had been expecting this to happen at anytime and I assured her that she had not done anything wrong! She got just a little over 52, 800 miles on that first bar and I'm pretty happy with that. It will be...

You bought the car with 22,000 miles on it and you don't know how the previous owners drove the car. More than likely they drove it hard and prematurely damaged the cells in the battery pack. We had the same experience with a 2011 leaf that we bought. It was still a great car, but because of...

I know the thread says 2013-17 leafs, but ours is a 2012 so it's close! purchased close to 4 years ago for 7000$ vehicle had close to 63,000 miles on it as far as deprecation goes it was pretty much deprecated out! the only service on the car in almost 50,000 miles was a change of the gearbox...

Yes, on a few occasions we have had to drive at around 0 degrees F and you can still control the amount of strips that kick in. You do have to preheat the car to 60 degrees but that only takes about 5 minutes at the 4.5 kw level then you can throttle back the temp to save energy. As long as...

The problem with the heating system in leafs using standard resistance type heaters (all leafs prior to 2013 and s models after) can be helped by learning the controls and their little quirks. In our 2012 leaf I've noticed that the heater is acutally a three stage unit. At low settings it...

First to leftiebiker-the battery in the original leaf had been replaced just prior to my buying it with the new chemistry pack. I called the nissan dealer who did the swap to make sure. As far as still having 12 bars I taught my wife the proper care and charging of her pack and she has been...

almost 4 years ago I bought my wife a 2012 leaf SV. It had 63,000 miles on it and it had just had a battery swap under warranty. It had also been in a traffic accident which caused the insurance co. to total it out. It was only sheet metal damage and it was repaired. I took a chance and...

If you are patient, you can find great deals on used leafs out there. My wife had a 2011 leaf which was down to 8 bars (77,000 miles). She loved the car, but was wanting more range. I had decided to go ahead and purchase the new battery at about 6800$ because the car was still like new and...
