I took delivery of my Nissan Leaf S on April 20 in Las Vegas NV. I had zero problems using the 120v charge until June 6 when I got into my car whose charge indicator lights were out (indicating a completed charge) and upon turning it on noted that it was not fully charged and had some warning lights on the dash. I shut it off and turned it on again and the warning lights went away. Thinking that perhaps a brown out or other anomaly may have triggered the poor charge I drove for the day and again, plugged it in for an overnight charge. The next day the charging situation was the same, warning lights on dash and only a partial charge.
I called the dealer and they were awesome and got me in this morning. At noon they called me to tell me that their mechanic had the same experience that I had, only a partial charge before it shut down. At 4 pm they told me I had a bad Power Distribution Module and that it needed to be replaced. Bad news: potentially up to one week before the part arrives and they can fix it... Good News? I'm out of town for most of the week.
Who else has had this issue? The dealer shared with me they had seen one other Leaf that had this issue so the mechanic felt confident in his assessment and ability to fix the issue.
