I am in the middle of a buyback myself and fwiw, my process has been incredibly easy. I can't explain the difference, but all I did was file another complaint (my third) right after the September Phoenix Range test. After that, Nissan "tested" my car and then the Arbitration Dept called me and asked me what I wanted. I said I wanted my money back and they said okie dokie. In fact, they have the check in hand but are kindly letting me hold off a few weeks before I pull the trigger to see if Nissan comes out with an announcement about a battery warranty on the 2013s. I asked for this because I interpreted OrientExpress's post as implying that there may be one.

If in fact Nissan chooses to warrantee the 2013 battery there should be no reason it would not apply to the 2011, since the battery chemistry is the same.I also wanted to mention that I think everyone will be quite pleased with how Nissan will stand behind battery performance for the coming BEVs in their US portfolio.
