I don't use FB myself, but feel free to post a link to this thread.

I do appreciate the advice, however when I started this thread, the car was already at the dealership. I also have other priorities in life besides sitting around in my snow-covered driveway trying to self-diagnose a vehicle that rightfully should be repaired by manufacturer, which is one of the...

During the first 10 weeks it was at the dealership, they replaced the 12 volt battery, the "lithium-ion battery Junction box", and the "Power inverter/charger". I never received and invoice/repair order for when I had to send it back for the next 5 week stint. However, my understanding is that...

So, I picked up the car after the first ten weeks at the dealership and was told that everything had been fixed. I didn't drive more than a mile from the dealership when the EV WARNING light came on. Foolishily, I thought it might be fluke and perhaps would go out after restarting the car or...

After 10 weeks, the dealership was able to replace the what they refer to as the LITH-ION BATTERY JUNCTION BOX and the POWER INVERTER/CHARGER, which was enough to get it running. They were able to cover this work under the 8 year battery warranty. (except for the 12 volt battery replacement.)...

This 15 week clown show has taken place at Marlboro Nissan in Marlboro, Massachusetts

So I finally got my car back... with a very little information on what was fixed. For those of you interested in the codes; these codes were listed on the invoice: C1109; C118C; POA8D; P311C; P3176; P317B; P3180; P30FE; C1A62; C1A70 and a line that states: Tech line advised to follow P311C...

That is correct, just barely. The dealership has made no claims the diagnostics charges will be applied towards the repair and I don't expect that it will. I am however hoping and expecting that it will be covered under warranty and it won't matter to me.

At the point I was told that the next series of diagnostic steps would cost an additional $1,000, I contacted LEAF customer service to see if they would stand behind their product given my circumstances. The customer service agent advised me that the 2012 LEAF had a five year warranty on both...

I'm not sure that there is much of that going on around here. Most Nissan dealerships in this part of the world only have one certified LEAF tech and I think even that is only because Nissan requires them to have one if they want to sell LEAFs. I'm sure they would love for me to do that. They...

So when they first got my LEAF at the dealership they told me that it threw 15-20 different codes when they first hooked it up. The diagnostic steps they are following are supposedly straight from Nissan technical support.

cat·a·stroph·ic /kade'sträfik/ adjective- (2) extremely unfortunate or unsuccessful. I do think that this failure is extremely unfortunate on my part and extremely unsuccessful on Nissan's part. If you were being asked to shell out $1,500 just to figure out what needs to be fixed you might...

After the dealership had the car for the better part of two weeks, they still could not determine the cause of the original problem. They informed me that they were in contact with Nissan technical support and the recommendation was for the next diagnostic procedure which takes 9-11 hours at...

The next day I called roadside assistance and had the car flatbedded to the second closest Nissan dealership to my house. They did indeed charge me $150 to replace the 12 volt battery in addition to $360 for diagnostic work. There is still no change in the condition. They still have not managed...

So I had the same thought. Brought out the ole 12 volt battery charger and hooked it for about 30 minutes. Nothing changed.
