Just following up, here. Corporate eventually promised to cover a rental car for as long as I shall need one. Which is a good thing, b/c I still don't have my Leaf back. They say they have installed the battery w/the new component(s)... and don't have enough sealing material to...

Thank you Lothsahn for the information and links. It's always good to know more. I never worked on any of my old gasoline-powered cars, but made sure I understood the basics so I could handle problems and understand the mechanic. I've only had an all-electric car for a year. As the whole...

Thanks everyone for your input. I spoke to the service mgr. this morning. He reports that one of the four battery packs that make up the main battery is leaking, and he says he ordered a replacement today, as well as putting in a formal request to extend the rental I have currently (which...

Hi all-- Not sure if this is the right subforum; apologies if it isn't. My leased 2017 Leaf died three weeks ago, almost exactly one year into the 3-year lease. Dashboard lit up like a Christmas tree and the car wouldn't go into gear. I had it towed to the local dealership (not the dealership...

Good news: A good friend of ours who works with cars came over and took off the big plastic panel over the front part of the area over the hood and then the small plastic cover over the top of the charge port assembly, and pressed the latch up and freed it. Our car is no longer tethered to our...

Thank you everyone so far for responding--I really appreciate all of the input! We were aware of the electronic lock option on the Leaf--the electronic lock was not on when I plugged in, but just to cover all of the bases we have cycled through the lock/unlock button several times, as well as...

We've tried the screwdriver maneuver, no effect. What we know is that the trigger of the EVSE wand does not depress--when you try to depress it, there is 0% movement, as if (and I understand that this might actually be what is wrong) there is something wedged underneath the internal trigger...

Thank you for responding! I thought I had specified that it’s a 2017 (2.5 months old, leased). Sorry. Since both car and charger are brand new and under warranty, it is unlikely we will do anything lest we void the warranty, but I definitely wanted to know if it’s been encountered before...

Hi-- I've got a version of this problem, and it's a doozy. We have a two-week-old Siemens Versicharger, hard-wired to our garage. Used it about 9 times, successfully. On Thursday, the Versicharger wand stuck. The trigger is completely frozen--no movement. We have tried both the dashboard lock...
