#2013 Leaf with 980 miles, has been running perfectly since we got it a month ago
#charged last night to 100 miles because i am expecting a long day of back and forth trips today
#Driving wife to work and suddenly car gives "low power" (not sure of right name for it). and i pretty much lose all power, pull over and park, power down, power up and shows i have 85 miles, drop her off..
#heading back home, same thing happens....
#dropped it off at nissan dealer on way home.
what i think may have gone wrong:
# i have my old prius weather tech mats on, I’m wondering if improper fit, caused the brake or gas to not depress completely
# i cant think of any other reason for this to happen
#on a side note, the dealer said there was a recall (didnt say for what" but that they would take care of it while they check it out
#went ahead and ordered some weather tech mats for leaf while i was there.
Thanks any advice is appreciated!
Update 5/21/13
Well Nissan got back to me, they offered
Not to release me from lease
Not to flip the car for a working leaf
They offered to assign me a regional tech to look into the problem or to pay one months payment on the lease.
Extremely frustrating:
So car still sits in dealer 11 days and counting for this episode
Called the dealer, asked what info they had, they stated:
They were still working on the car
No idea when it was going to be fixed
And would not consider letting me get a new leaf.
So stuck with with ICE, and no idea when i will get my leaf back.
Not sure what to do next....very frustrating....
