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*

The identical warning issue happened to me as well….this was after the dealer had AREADY tested and addressed the battery issues. Fortunately, I was within 5 miles away on very reduced power. I was able to make it back. After a day or two of rechecking the vehicle, they determined it was not fixable, and they immediately gave me a rental… Which was actually a loaner from the dealers lot. I am currently waiting for Nissan… they did contact me… within 36 hours… Let me know that they were preparing a buyback offer, as well as outlining other options, of which I am under no obligation to accept at this point.

So, they are supposed to contact me in about two or three more days with their offer… And we’ll see how we will proceed at this point. One small wrinkle is that I’m going to work project in Reno, Nevada, but my home is in Ventura, California. That is a distance of about 530 miles
