2015S, almost 37k miles. No mods of any kind. Fort Worth: miles and miles of older, uneven concrete slab road surface. Our particular commute is unbelievably rough, and the Leaf gets tossed fore/aft, and side-to-side. The suspension gets an amazing workout. I think it has become worse, but...

2015S: The front seatbelts don't retract on their own, needing assistance to fully retract. Is there an instructional video on removing the b-pillar trim pieces to access the seat belt reel? I'm thinking there might be some adjustability there. Thanks!

2015 LeafS, 35k miles. Totally stock...Bridegstone EcopiaPlus, 205/55 X 16. I read a few threads about suspension mods, they all talk about lowering/tightening the suspension. I'm looking for the opposite solution. (FYI, I'm coming from the VW/Audi world, and value its concept of...

I did a search, but couldn't find anything helpful. Does this forum offer a list of recommended dealerships/techs for servicing the Leaf? Other forums I've belonged to have some sort of "guru" list, showing techs that are highly rated. I know it's a complex question, but in my 33k miles...

I did search, and couldn't find the discussion that I've seen here before about compromised braking while driving over washboard or uneven road surfaces. I'm at 31k miles, really love the simplicity of my LeafS. I don't know if this issue has gotten worse, or I've just been driving in areas...

2015 LeafS., 27k miles, residing in Fort Worth, TX. We had an at-fault accident, $5700 repair. We've been with Progressive for 3 years, paying around $5k/year for 4 vehicles. Commute is 7m r/t, so all highway miles are pleasure/vacation, not business. My wife and I have driven, combined, 80+...

Purchasing a 12V battery? Make sure you check the production date. My local PepBoys tried to sell me a battery that was manufactured 22 months ago. Also, I strongly recommend you have the shop fully charge the battery prior to the sale. The 2nd battery they showed me was only 40% charged, when...

Hello all, I thought I'd share some info from TireRack (folks who are in the business of selling tires!!!) 1) These kits have been around for 10+ years. They have been used successfully by thousands of consumers, and are used in many, many brands. The TireRack rep I spoke with, who is 54...

What's going on? Just took delivery of a Covercraft Evolution 3 cover, complete with custom-designed access flap to accommodate the charging port. Weird: the trapezoidal flap is attached on the BOTTOM edge, meaning it flops open, and therefore is completely open while charging, rather than being...

Did an advanced search, found nothing. Dealer/manual recommend 7500m/annual brake fluid change. Dealer (salesman, NOT the Leaf-only tech) recommended it, because the heat in the regen can cause brake fluid to break down. My previous experience with new cars (VWs): First change at 2 years (paid...

Hello all, New member, loving my 2015 Leaf, purchased used with 6700 miles. Now at 7400 miles, getting ready to take it in for 7500 service. I have a couple of questions (probably more in the next weeks!) : 1) I feel an irregular "shudder" between 37-42 mph, regardless of road...
