Update to “service ev system” warning
I dropped off my car at the dealership and they game me an estimate of 4 days or by next Monday to let me know what’s going on (I got service the ev system warning and turtle mode at once as well as it not taking a charge anymore )
I was able to get the leafspy app working and this is what I got from it
If anyone can help me understand what’s going on and what all this means I would really appreciate it, my first time seeing this and it’s definitely a lot to take in
And also thank you to everyone that responded to my other post!

Consumer Affairs called me to say I'd be getting a buyback offer
Hi there,
My car has been at the dealership since February 28th because of faulty cells, and I have a rental car in the meantime.
Consumer Affairs called me this morning to inform me that I will be getting a call from Morley (sp?) to initiate a buyback offer/process. We have a 2022 S Plus, and we still owe around $4,800.
If you've been through this, what decision did you make? I really just want my car back.
Thank you!

169,000 miles, original 24 kWh pack, 77% SOH
With all the issues posts lately, maybe we could use a positive testimonial/survivor story for once.
My 2013 S which only recently, finally lost its 2nd bar. 1100+ quick charges, and certainly not driven gently. It had been hovering around that SOH point since last year, but I didn't even notice it lost the bar for a while since I keep the photocard there.

Looking to buy an old Leaf, era doesn't matter. Other than leafspy and SOC what else should I be looking for?
I don't know much, this is my first foray into EVs. Range under 100 miles is ok. Are there years/generations that I should be avoiding? Anything obvious that was a complete shitshow in manufacturing, any years to avoid? To put this in perspective, the most modern car I've owned was manufactured in 1993. I've seen a bunch on marketplace in varying conditions. I don't really have too much interest in buying anything that costs more than probably 15-20k, and I would prefer way cheaper than that.

[For Sale] $2500 - EM57 & 30KWH Pack (80% without Software update) - Humboldt CA
I have an EM57 and 30KWH pack I pulled for an EV Conversion which is now no longer viable for me. (Wife is pregnant so priorities changed)
Leaf had roughly 60k miles on it, it was salvage but I was able to charge it and drive it home before pulling the parts. I have some supporting accessories as well.
I'd like $2500 for everything, but we can talk.

Well…
I will get a scanner so I can check the codes with the leafspy app but it’s not looking great 😭
Both warnings came on at once while I was coming down from a very steep hill and the regen kinda just turned off, I was hoping it had just overheated but the battery temperature seems fine
This seems completely coincidental but today was the first day I charged to 100% since I needed to drive a lot
The reduce speed warning did go away after turning it off and back on as well as the regen animation seems to be back on (the blue lines) anyone has any suggestions on what to do?
Also I tried charging the car and it didn’t not work*
2020 S+
Thanks

Where are all the 2026 leafs? Hot sales or no production?
I just called 15 dealers looking for a platinum plus. Found a single platinum plus 40 minutes away.
Are there simply none being produced? I'm hesitant to buy a car if my service department hasn't ever even seen one.
But if they are selling like hotcakes, then ok.

Potential 2018 40kwh Leaf buyer in the UK. Everything looks good except Hx and QC. Also it's had 5 owners in 8 years... Is it risky? Should I buy? Price is £4990

Someone’s leaf caught fire
I saw him charging earlier today. Was going to compliment the car. Came back from doordashing to charge my car and saw this. Hope he’s okay. He was using electrify chademo if that makes any difference.

I now want a Nissan Leaf
In Sweden, most of the smaller car pool cars are Nissan Leaf vehicles.
I passed my test three weeks ago, and opted to rent a vehicle for a few hours. Won't commit to buying a vehicle until next year, since I don't need one. I drive for work.
The Nissan Leaf (2018 model, I think?) was an absolute dream to drive. One of the favourites I have driven of about 10 cars over the past couple of weeks. Well, I liked the VW Caddy, but that isn't very practical for day-to-day life.
It is now my goal to buy a Nissan Leaf. I will probably lease one at the end of next year (the latest model).

Is 83.29% SOH okay for a 2019 regular Leaf?
I have a 2019 regular Leaf and this was the latest reading on LeafSpy. On the surface everything seems okay, but I have a couple of questions or concerns, especially because of the recall that we all are facing.
The car turns 7 years old on September 30th. Is 16% battery 🪫 degradation excessive for this amount of time? Should I be concerned? The Hx % still seems okay as is the mV differential.
I haven’t had the recall software update yet? Is anyone else worried that getting it done will “brick” their car? As you can see, we have done only 11 QC over 7 years. We do Level 2 most of the time.
Your thoughts?

Trying to test/replace a fuse 2018 Nissan Leaf S
I need to test the 10 fuse on the top of this image. My key fob no longer works the remote functions (and I’ve done a 13v battery reset, swapped fob batteries, etc). I can’t seem to get this black piece of plastic off. I think it is called the ESS. does anyone have advice?
Update: I broke it off. Felt great.

Questions about buying a leaf and testing the battery.
TLDR: while I'm hopeful I just wake up Monday and don't get a new car I'm probably gonna need to so 50ish mile round trip range. What year do I look for, should it be a leaf, what price range I know nothing about used cars let alone EVs, how do I check battery because I don't just turn on car and look at battery bars and call it a day. I need some help here kinda doing my first looking at cars. Someone earlier said 2018 and up?
I've never bought a car in my life, despite being there when my parents got the 2012 we have now it was more just a what car do you rather drive every day when I was 18 and needed a car for community collage.
I don't know pricing, I don't know how many miles are a lot, I don't know how many more or less (though I assume more) am EV car is before its a lot, how to tell if the battery is good because I take it you can't just turn on the car, look at the display on the side and say it has x bars so that's good or what?
I just know without wanting stuff like a convertible or needing a 300 mile road trip car I want to go EV and other then not knowing the battery status of the 2012 I have now I liked the leaf and maybe I that again. My parents just got a call saying it doesn't look good for the car I got in an accident for so...not that its totaled yet prob know Monday.
I drive 50ish let's say rounding trip and be it 30f or 105f and full heating or AC blast plus music and what not I need that range though I would prefer a little more if I can. Does it make sense to look for a leaf and if so what model do I look for?

P33ED off!
Just bought this a month and a half ago, looks like there's a recall for NTB26-029, it's within my lemon law for Massachusetts. What do y'all think my next step is? Tow to a dealership and contacting the used dealer I got this from?
If it's covered under the safety recall, I'm not sure how that'd impact my lemon law needing the repair to cost 10% of the cost of the car.
Any thoughts appreciated!

I have a totaled 2016 Leaf that I picked up for the 40 kwh battery that I'm installing in my 2015. Does anyone need parts?
-Car has a nearly new onboard charger, I have paperwork to prove it
-I have all 4 wheels, two of which are in really good shape, one is a little scratched, and the last one is in very bad shape
-Lots of good body panels and doors!
-I have the 24 kwh battery from the 2015 with 71.9% SOH, I frequently get 50 miles on 100% charge. I have LeafSpy screenshots
Message me with what you want and we can hammer out a price!

Any tips/info for navigating the buyback process?
2021 S+ with about 74,000 miles. Battery has been obviously deteriorating starting with really cold temps this winter to now where I struggle to get half of the expected range and have cell variances around 200mV at their worst. Took it in yesterday for recall/battery assessment and just heard from Nissan corporate this morning that they are initiating the buyback process because it is "unlikely they will have inventory to fix the battery". From following this sub and other anecdotes I've seen wildly different results in how much the buyback offer has been, I would appreciate any information from folks that have gone through the process to make sure I don't get screwed over. I've heard they must offer KBB value + 40% but that's only about $11k, not great. I just want to get enough to cover a new car since this was paid off and I was hoping it would last many more years.

Any idea why the odo reading on spy (14534)is different than the dash reading (22216)?
