I’m baffled and pissed off that Nissan has not provided a solution for early leaf connectivity going away. I’m still driving my 2011 Leaf and to keep it viable. It is essential that I can preheat the car to melt the ice & snow and maintain maximum battery charge. This time of year with heat / defrost running the range is 35~40 miles with a full charge. Very frustrating for us early adopters who believed in nissan’s “good for the planet” advertising. Planned obsolescence does not serve that cause.
Seems to me there are simple software solutions that can be applied cheaply.
1. Allow the heater to be on while the car is plugged into an L2 EVSE
2. Allow ventilation with the heater turned off. Very useful in spring and fall to extend range.
3. Allow the app to preheat via the Bluetooth connection.
