(Sorry for the FB link to a different group, not familiar enough with the forum to know how to do photos.)

I never did hear from the regional CA specialist as was promised and so Monday and today made sure that via the Nissan CA chat I was clear that I haven't heard from them yet and expected to. While I didn't get a call from the regional CA specialist, I did get a call from an arbitration specialist (AS). The AS explained they had no idea when the part (ie the battery pack) would be ready and thus I had a buyback option that would follow the BBB AutoLine recommendations for my state (ie following the lemon law for my state). Given the lemon law for my state is really good I agreed to pursue that option. All the documentation/photos have been submitted and hopefully by EOD Friday I learn about next steps. The AS explained that once I was to accept the offer (none of what I'm doing mandates that I accept it - I get that chance later on in the process) it's up to 4 weeks for the repurchase process to complete.
Quick update on my story. I accepted the buyback offer and sent the signed paperwork back. AS replied in email that i'll be 7-10 days for Nissan processing and then should hear from Morley 7-10 days after that to set a date for the surrender of the car. All in all, I've been very pleased with the process.
Another update. Small delay due to Morley needing additional paperwork from me. Nissan has cut the check and Morley "has accepted the case". The AS tells me that the surrender date should be in a "few weeks". My next update will be after the surrender happens and the check clears.

That sounds pretty good settlement.
Who is "Morley"?
I am surprised to hear about meeting w/a Morley rep. I never heard of that w/anyone who had their Bolts bought back, me included.Reacquired Vehicle Management (RVM)

When Lemon Laws mandate that an OEM must buy back a vehicle, the process is costly and complex. By offering the industry’s fastest and most comprehensive buyback process (months faster than the industry standard), our clients save money and increase customer brand loyalty.

...If Nissan is acting similar to GM during its buyback, the manufacturer follows the lemon laws of the state you live in. Red states have weaker consumer protection than Blue states, so you can expect your offer in NC to be less generous than e.g. a LEAF owner in CA

I'm wondering about all these references to lemon laws. In Arizona no lemon law applies after 24 months or some number of miles, and as such would have no applicability here, since we're dealing with cars way older than 2 years. I would think many states have such limitations.

TeaHSD said:Personally I want to wait for the battery. I imagine since i've got approval from the dealer, I just wait it out, and if it never comes 1-2 years later, I could be part of a class action lawsuit? ... hopefully a battery magically comes someday within next year.
