    Rear hatch handle rubber cover on open switch deteriorated

    The rear hatch deck lid handle rubber cover that goes over the switch to open the door and lock and unlock is deteriorating and leaving a sticky gooey rubber ooze. Looking in the parts diagram on various Nissan Parts websites I am only coming up with the entire handle / camera assembly. The...

    The New Tire Replacement Post

    Well that's good to know that some LEAF drivers have driven them with good efficiency results. I just can't see how a tire could possibly drop range efficiency by 20%. If it is around 10% or better, even after they wear in, I would be just fine with them. I prefer sticky tires if possible...

    The New Tire Replacement Post

    I'm looking at getting new tires for the LEAF this week. It is still running 2 of the OEM Ecopia's that are nearly bald. The other 2 are GT Radial tires that came with the car when I got it (used). I'm think of putting on a set of the Michelin Premier A/S however I'm hesitant over the loss...

    LEAF Fire in North Texas

    I removed the video from public viewing as I felt is was causing more harm than good at this point. Sorry.

    LEAF Fire in North Texas

    Yes, I was quite pleased as well that they were that interested. Made me feel a little better about them still being interested in the cars and further development and safety.

    The Battery Replacement Thread

    First thing, I mis-spoke about the bars. I only got down to 8 bars (lost 4 bars), not 7 bars. Dates of bar losses: 4th bar Nov 5, 2014 Mileage 35734 I was too ignorant at the time to be concerned with when I lost 3rd bar. I can't be sure but the car had already lost the first 2 bars when I...

    The Battery Replacement Thread

    Thought I'd share quick about my battery replacement. Capacity was dropping real fast after I bought my used 2011 SL. The dealer that had it got it from CA and it ended up in TX. Not a Nissan dealer just a private small lot dealer. He let the car sit for months with a nearly dead pack as...

    LEAF Fire in North Texas

    I simply said it was a cigarette mishap.... Don't know how easily water-bottle-fabric covered seats can catch fire but you never know.

    LEAF Fire in North Texas

    So a LEAF caught fire and burned up yesterday. My boss's wife was driving by and got this video. I don't know much more than that but I am very curious if anyone knows what caused it? As one would expect all my non-LEAF-driving friends instantly gave me flak for driving a LEAF and told me to...
