This one may be a long shot. However, I recently contacted Nissan USA on their contact form here: http://www.nissanusa.com/apps/contactus telling them about my thoughts of improving charging infrastructure in places that need it, specifically DC charging. Much unlike Europe and Japan, not only are there many places in the US which completely lack DC charging infrastructure (such as my locale), but there are many other places (such as coastal California) that need more stations to charge due to demand.
I am sure you all are mostly LEAF fans just like me. With the gen 2 LEAF coming, the best time to improve the charging would be now, because the release will be a make or break moment for the LEAF. A lack of charging infrastructure will not allow the LEAF to compete with the Tesla Model 3 when it comes out. While Nissan does not install charging stations themselves, they do fund installations and can make them happen where there is demand.
I received a phone reply to my inquiry today, and the customer support specialist told me that my request will most definitely be overheard by higher ups in the corporate office. However, he feels that progress will be made when there are more inquiries about the same topic that I wrote in about. If you feel that improvements need to be made to our charging infrastructure, please let Nissan know, and our voices will be heard!
