I found a window sticker. It states that on fully charged battery, vehicle can travel about 73 miles. I also realized that we paid $39,190.00 for this piece of crap. Sage Brush has insulted my intelligence twice today. One has to be really dumb to pay so much money for a golf car.
We did not sign any disclosures. No one has provided the official EPA range ratings to us. Back in 2011 Nissan advertised 100 miles range on fully charged battery. I clearly remember that, and I am sure I am not alone. I remember that we asked the dealer about the realistic range, and he...
Misleading advertising is prohibited by law. I am surprised there was no class action for that yet.
Some people do not realize, that consumers are not specialists. Consumers should not be expected to perform their own research prior to purchasing the product.

Advertisement from Nissan:
The average American drives less than 37 miles per day. With a maximum range of up to 107 miles, the Nissan LEAF® SV & SL can take you nearly three times that distance on a single charge.
It is on Nissan’s website
Correct. I have no written prove that extended warranty covers the battery degradation. Although, I have a prove that the case was opened for “battery replacement under warranty”. It was opened by Nissan. I believe that Nissan should reopen the case and fulfill their original promise to replace...
This is from Nissan ad for 2011/2012 Leaf. Google it.
MPGe: 106 city / 92 highway
Battery charge time: 21h at 110V, 4h at 220V, 0.5h at 440V
Battery: 24 kWh 360 V lithium-ion
I am sorry, I can’t provide you neither agents ID number nor my case number opened by that person.
However, the...
We are not going to spend more money on this car. Our older son can drive it for a couple more years until
he goes to college and then the younger one will have it for another couple of years. There is enough battery capacity for cruising around the house.
I am considering getting Tesla Model...
I don’t understand why people defend Nissan. We wanted to support Nissan’s first EV, and took a risk at buying a vehicle without knowing all of the problems the car might have. No one in 2011 knew that the rate of the battery degradation would be that high, which resulted in a class action...
Thank you so much for your support. I already mailed a package with all the documents attached to the application - the dealer inspection report with the case number from Nissan to BBB. I am not going to post the document on the public forum as it contains our private information.
If Nissan...
I corrected a typo in my previous post, March 2017
The dealer recorded that the battery lost 4 bars of capacity in March 2017.We purchased Nissan 2012 in late December 2011.
We have a document with a case number from Nissan, that was opened in March 2017. I consider that as a written...
The capacity loss was included to the original factory warranty — 5 years or 60000 miles in 2013. We received a letter from Nissan regarding that.
The Gold proffered extends warranty to 8 years or 100000 miles. That is why the leaf specialist who opened our case number stated that we have time...
Our case for battery replacement was opened in March 2017, when Nissan was still offering prorated warranty support. Leaf specialist, who opened the case number, told us that we have time till 2019 to change the battery because we have an extended coverage warranty. When we came to the...
We took really good care of the battery, tried to charge it only to 80% to prolong its life. We lost the 4th bar just a few month after the “warranty” ended.
Nissan sold us an extended “gold coverage warranty”, assuring us that this warranty should cover all the issues.
However, what...
Dudess, not dude. This is very disappointing.
Nissan keeps lying about the battery performance.
The rate of capacity loss is about double what Nissan advertised in the above provided video. This is not OK.
