It took him more than 15 minutes to say what I will say in a couple of sentences: the Leaf is the best car I've ever owned...and I hope to have it another 10 years. I too will be looking for a 40kWh battery pack replacement...and hope that someone local (to Dallas) can do the work by the time I am ready (I am on my second battery pack).

I have a 2015.... My problems....
- ABS wheel sensor went and the car would suddenly jolt to a stop.... Not good.
- Driver door chrome handle keeps on popping off... I will soon glue it.. Right now i have a zip tie holding it in place.
- In less than 40K miles original tires wore so badly that the steel belts started coming though...
Otherwise, CAR RUN GOOD!!!
brunohill said:It seams such a waste to pull out a battery that is at 80% capacity, quite capable of doing your local errands when you already own a Tesla model 3 and an electric Kona for longer trips. I like many others will probably never be able to get hold of a 40 kWh battery and are wondering how they are going to get to work next winter as their batteries may no longer be up to it.

This tells us more about how you drive than about the quality of the tires. My 2012 tires were less than half worn out at 20k miles, and my 2014 tires made it past 40k miles.jjeff said:My new '13's CRAP OEM tires wore out before 20k but did make it past the 12 months where Nissan would have really done anything.
Past experience with commercial vehicles and with the LEAF taught me a few things about this common complaint:WetEV said:This tells us more about how you drive than about the quality of the tires.

rogersleaf said:1). Nissan has bad advice in the Owners Manual concerning periodic tire rotations. These tires should be cross-rotated, not directly front-to-rear as stated in the manual.

Err... why? I did front to rear. What would I see different if cross rotated?
I did front to rear. What would I see different if cross rotated?powersurge said:Yes, proper rotation is front tires cross to opposite rear and rears move to same side front....
