I just purchased a 2011 SL with 12 bars and a Carfax report of a new battery installed March 2017. I love the Leaf! Yet, even with efficient driving (ECO, regen, little to no AC, slow driving, etc.), the range would rapidly drop at a rate of about 3 miles to 1 driven.
Contacted Nissan Corporate / Warranty tracking who told me that the lithium battery was replaced in June 2015 and the 12v in 2017. There is no Carfax mention of the June 2015 battery install yet there is a noted June 2015 battery check. From June 2015 through March 2017, all service was done at the same Nissan dealership.
Also, the Nissan dealership brought the Leaf to a neighboring Hyundai dealership from where I purchased. The Hyundai dealership thought the 2017 battery install was the lithium and not the 12v. The Hyundai dealership had the same neighboring Nissan dealership do an inspection and the results were I should drive more efficiently.
I just got LeafSpy Pro and the OBDII adapter.
Suggestions?
