    The battery replacement/buyback thread.

    My usage deduction fit neatly into my states lemon law in MN which benefited me greatly as an original owner. You can search for my posts/story. FWIW... I'm starting to see some '17 Bolts coming down in price and pushing $16-17K (check Autotrader). If you qualify for the $4K used EV fed tax...

    Whoa... I thought I did well with $27K. Well played!

    Given 'reasonable allowance' (line #14) you might be pleasantly surprised. Good luck! https://assets.bbbprograms.org/docs/default-source/auto-line/statelemonlaws/texas-lemonlaw.pdf?sfvrsn=783ebed7_7

    Nissan is choosing to snap to a state's lemon law. My guess is that they do that to avoid potential lawsuits for not being able (or wanting) to honor the battery warranty. https://bbbprograms.org/programs/all-programs/bbb-autoline/lemon-laws-by-state/

    Upon my arrival, the Nissan service manager said, "you'll be meeting with a Morley rep". That could have meant the person acting on behalf of Morley and/or Nissan. All I know is that she knew what she was doing and the process was quick.

    Yesterday was surrender day. Walked into the dealership at 10a and met with the Morley rep. Signed some paperwork that legally transferred the car to Nissan and at 1030a walked out with a check for $26,910.79. The check has already cleared. Time to go shopping. :-)

    Strongly recommend starting a case with Nissan CA and pursuing buyback. You don't have to accept what they offer, but at least you'd know. The offer will very likely snap to your state's lemon law: https://bbbprograms.org/programs/all-programs/bbb-autoline/lemon-laws-by-state/ By early next...

    Based on prior post I don't think the story has a conclusion yet....

    Another update. Small delay due to Morley needing additional paperwork from me. Nissan has cut the check and Morley "has accepted the case". The AS tells me that the surrender date should be in a "few weeks". My next update will be after the surrender happens and the check clears.

    My hope all along was for a 40kWh pack. However, due to the crazy good lemon law in my state it would be financially dumb for me to go that route. Once I have surrendered the car and the check has cleared, I will relay exact numbers. :-)

    Quick update on my story. I accepted the buyback offer and sent the signed paperwork back. AS replied in email that i'll be 7-10 days for Nissan processing and then should hear from Morley 7-10 days after that to set a date for the surrender of the car. All in all, I've been very pleased with...
