I recently purchased a 2013 Nissan Leaf SV. I'm in Canada, and this Leaf was purchased in the US, so I called Nissan to confirm warrant was valid in Canada, which they not only confirmed but took all my details and added the VIN to a NissanConnect account for which they created for me.
Then she had some issue adding the VIN to the account (which I wondered if it was due to being a US sourced VIN, on a Canadian NissanConnect account?).
She came back and said she added the VIN, but, that I would be getting a letter in the mail, stating that I need to upgrade from 2G to 3G, and until then, I couldn't use NissanConnect (now I was a bit confused, because the car is able to communicate and does update maps and charging stations). However, I do know its using AT&T even though I'm in Canada.
She said I could call my dealership to ask about it now to find out more info about the upgrade. When I called the Canadian Nissan Dealer, they were like a "deer in the headlights", not knowing anything about an 2G to 3G upgrade.
I also called a US Nissan dealer in Bellingham (I'm only 30 minutes from there), and they didn't know anything about it either.
Has anyone else in Canada purchased a US sourced Nissan, and what are you doing to use your Nissan Connect /Carwings?
