It is great that your remote app is working. As for the text alerts is is due to the fact that canadian cell companies are not listed on the us account listing. So I just get email alerts as my telus account works.

I drove to the border near Vermont (Richford), not better. I will plan a trip to Burlington to try their ChaDemo and try Carwings again.

I tried to use it and tells me "Carwings setup not complete, login to owner's portal website"
2 possible problems : My Leaf is not able to connect to the network in the Montreal area or it is missing some configuration / sim.

I also had this problem. Go to the owner's portal and click on documents or agreements or something like and accept the terms of the agreement, then it will work.
I joined this site just to thank the posters on this thread for getting Carwings working on my US Leaf which was imported into Canada (and to assist tivollix since I had the same problem). It's great to have it working now! I bought the Leaf for my daughter. I can now keep an eye on the battery remotely; and she can warm up the car remotely -- while plugged in -- for the coming winter. I'm using Leaf Manager on my Android (paid $5 for the pro version). My daughter has an iPhone but rather than going the US App route, I also installed Leaf Manager on her phone and it works great!
Thanks All and especially EVKen!!!

CARWINGS™ Agreement ACCEPTED 08/07/2014
I'll give an update if I find what's wrong.

You have probably done this, but just to be certain, under where it says you accepted the agreement do you have:
CARWINGS™ PIN: xxxxx
CARWINGS™ Password: xxxxx
(I replaced my info above with the "x's")
Did you then put that info in the car's Carwing's menu information?
If you have also done that then maybe try calling Carwings in the US. I called them and told them I was from Canada but I had an imported Leaf and they helped me set it up (I got an error saying my car was already registered which they fixed when I emailed them my registration papers). They told me it won't work in Canada but I read them what was said in the thread which they said was news to them. So don't be discouraged if they tell you it won't work. Tell them you just want to make sure everything is fine from their end to see if that's the problem.

I re-checked everything and found on the portal that my car did not register.

What does it say for the "Carrier" in your car's Carwing's menu? Mine says AT&T. If you don't have a sim, then that may be blank. In BC, AT&T roams on Rogers. My Tesla also uses AT&T and is always roaming in Canada -- which is great because we can go the States and get internet, but it doesn't work on US Tesla cars in Canada presumably because Tesla has disabled roaming for them. People in Quebec with Teslas have it working (but Tealas are 3G), and people with AT&T phones can also obviously roam in Quebec. One other thought is that the Leaf uses 2G and maybe Quebec's AT&T roaming partner has already got rid of 2G?

Mine is a 2012 SL imported from the US into Canada, and Carwings is now working following the procedure set out in this thread.
