End of my saga, first Canadian warranty replacement report for Gen 1 in a really long time. 14 month wait in Vancouver BC

Cynically, I think it's just become cheaper for Nissan to do replacements again rather than buyoutsSeeing a lot of recent replacements are they finally catching up?

Buyouts are based on customer acquisition price but that can be way above current market value so Nissan might be unable to resell those units with lemon title easily.
Also, Canada never had buyouts so I never had a choice in the matter
My work form shows a new part number 295B0 4NP6DRE vs 295B0 4NP6D
Google searches put the former as 3k USD with 2500 core charge, versus the latter at 14k with 2500 core charge

Maybe the RE at the end is specific for warranty replacements?
I heard from my dealer that they just completed a warranty battery swap for a Leaf that had an approved claim from Oct '22. Also told me that there have been some communication from Nissan Canada about supply chain improvements for the battery and to expect wait times to decrease this year....
Sooooo… been waiting about 8 months or so on word of my 2016 replacement. Finally decided to call today after seeing all these reports of batteries coming in. Well, Nissan customer service agent looked my case up and found that it had been closed. . .
#%^*@$&!
So told her I hadn’t closed it and nothing had been done, she gave me a new case number and says I’ll get a call in next day or two.
Might wanna call if you’ve been waiting patiently and haven’t heard anything.
Wow! Good for you! I filed a claim with Nissan customer support on January 24 this year about my 2017 Leaf with about 58K miles.My saga is nearly over. My 2017 went in for a battery replacement February, 2023. I get to pick it up tomorrow with a new 40 kwh battery and Nissan is replacing the brake rotors for free since it sat on the lot for 15 months. I'll turn in the 2022 Leaf loaner I've been driving at the same time.
