2019 Nissan Leaf

This recall is over a year old, based on science there is likely no software fix supported by the age of the recall. Since there clearly is no software fix, battery replacement should be mandated. This car is not able to be used as advertised, since it supported fast charging. I would need to rent another car for any trips over about 90 miles in one direction.

Three issues remain unsolved as Nissan states there is no current fix. 1) Recall for battery/fast charge. Recall was supposed to be fixed by Nov 24 and has not been fixed. Fast charge could lead to fire. Charging is limited to level 1 or level 2. 2) Software update causes heat to stop working at will. This is a safety hazard as temps in the upper midwest dip below zero degress. Nissan consumer affairs state their engineers are working on it, but this is the second winter season I'm dealing with this. 3) Infotainment system reboots daily at will and this is a safety issue as well. There is TSB that fixes this but my VIN is not included in the TSB therefore Nissan refuses to update it.

The contact owns a 2019 Nissan Leaf. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V700000 (Electrical System); however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The contact stated that the recall had been initiated two years prior, and the remedy was not available. The dealer was contacted; however, the contact was informed that parts were not yet available. The manufacturer was not contacted. The contact had not experienced a failure.

Recall campaign R24B2 was issued 9/20/24 and there is still no remedy. It has prevented me from using my vehicle as intended because I am unable to go anywhere with a longer distance since I can't use level 3 charging. This issue has not been fixed in a timely manner and I contacted the dealership in 2025 - they DID NOT RESPOND. This is unacceptable. I believe I am entitled to a repurchase since I am unable to fully utilize this car safely. Also, another problem was just discovered regarding the heating system not functioning properly on extremely cold days. I live in MN and this has been a serious problem this winter. I hope Nissan is investigated.

Nissan has reported than some cars could abruptly catch fire while DC fast charging due to excessive lithium deposits within the battery cells. In certain circumstances, those excess deposits could create additional electrical resistance while fast charging, overheating the battery pack and causing a fire. The NHTSA's reference number is 24V-700. This problem was first discovered in 2024 and officially reported in September 2024. This is nearly a year and a half ago and limits the usefulness of the vehicle to local driving only. It is ridiculous that a remedy still hasn't been implemented.

Nissan issued a recall on my 2019 Nissan Leaf for unsafe level 3 charging. I understood the answer to be a software update. It has been almost two years and no solution. I can't drive from Colorado Springs to Denver and back without having to charge. I need to be able to do this and I even had to buy a cheap ICE to get back and forth. I need this car to do what I need or I need Nissan to replace the battery or buy my car back so I can drive it as I need.

This current recall has been not been solved in over a year: Sep 19,2024 Manufacturer Recall NumberR24B2 NHTSA Recall Number24V-700 Recall StatusRecall Incomplete, remedy not yet available. I cannot drive as intended because I am no longer able to use a level 3 charger. This is unacceptable and I am no longer able to make longer distant commutes.

Nissan Leaf experienced large state of charge fluctuations while driving. State of charge was jumping up and down rapidly. Vehicle was taken in to Alpine Nissan in Federal Height, Colorado. Car was diagnosed with a cell imbalance across multiple cells which coincides with recall number R24B2 (NTHSA - 24V-700). I have been trying for weeks to get Nissan Consumer Affairs to give me a solution for the car as its undrivable due to the safety defect. At this point I haven't been able to get anyone on the phone in the last week. The car has a serious loss of power risk and is a fire hazard. The defect is well documented in the recall. The raw battery data and invoice for battery replacement is attached. Case number with Nissan is #[XXX]. I cannot get a written statement from the manufacturer or the dealer that the car is safe to drive in its current state.
