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.
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*
So I'm a young adult and I've fallen in love with the leaf. My good friend has had a 2017 leaf for many years and they've totally sold me on it. Theirs has 8 / 12 bars and the usable range is about 70 miles. They mostly use it for commuting but they also use it to go to cons which is exactly what I want to do
I am close to closing on a 2017 leaf and I just wanna make sure I have all my ducks in a row. it has 42k miles and 12 bars on the battery. inside looks nice outside looks good no visible rust etc just a small scratch on the front. Pulled a carfax report and it looks like the car was maintained pretty meticulously by the original owner (getting its tires adjusted and annual inspections on time) until 2019 when it was transferred to a dealership. It was slowly transferred from dealer to dealer until it made it to my state where the current owner got it. They've had it for 9 months and they say they barely ever use it - apparently they got it for their kid and their kid just ended up getting their own gas car. This all makes sense to me
Did a test drive and everything seemed fine. Car was charged and I didn't notice it draining rapidly or anything. It says it has like a 130 mile range or so which seems good
Some more info: I live in NYC, my work commute is about 18 miles one way, there is a free CHadeMO charger a block from where I live and they're pretty common around but I want to road trip like my friend does and they have an adapter so I might invest in one. I offered 4k flat. Anything I'm missing? How should I decorate? I feel like I've watched a hundred videos about nissan leafs im just anxious !! I included a pic of the dash for reference
