I called my local dealer, Robbins, here in Houston to check the availability/price of 24 kWh batteries. I did this not to actually purchase one but in order to confirm my suspicion, based on some of the threads I have seen, that Nissan does not make these anymore; I did this to load my gun to continue my conversation/argument with Nissan corporate regarding their broken 2014 commitment to a $5400 replacement battery . I did this two years ago and was told they would have to check their supplier for price, which they did, and then told me they were $8k. The parts department told me they were unable to check availability and that I would have to bring the car in to their service dept.! So I called service to find out why this is so over the top stupid. They didn't know but said the tech has to check the car out. I said check the car for what? The fact that I have a 1/2 life battery and want to purchase a new one? She said that's how it works. So I asked how much that would cost and she said nothing. But it will cost me 3 days of leaving my car in the shop; I'm like can't I make an appointment and she said the appointment is to talk to a service adviser!!!!!!!!!! Anyway, she did manage to get the price out of the tech: $12k!!!!!!!!!!! My dear forum friends, do yourself a favor, NEVER EVER BUY A NISSAN AGAIN, and tell those you love as well.
