FWIW. I encountered a lady driving a '16 deep blue pearl LEAF in Cameron Park CA on Monday, May 9.
She claims that Folsom Lake Nissan replaced the traction battery for free.
Apparently that LEAF had failed three times while driving on nearby roads.
The last time it "died" was on Highway 50.
She stated that she and her husband had purchased the LEAF used.
She also mentioned that they had purchased and "extended service" package.
The traction battery was replaced with a 40kWh battery according to the driver.
She was adamant that the replacement was the 40.
And that the replacement was at no cost to the owners!
Now.... WTF????
How was this claimed replacement managed for free?
Details are lacking.
Does anyone have further info?
Has this situation been repeated elsewhere?
I have two '11 LEAFs.
Both are at 6 capacity bars.
I can manage 35 miles on either one by using LSP.
Thank you.
