I have a 2020 SL Plus and I love the car. I don’t technically need the plus range for my daily commute but I do like how having the larger battery allows me to take day trips on the weekends that rarely require DC fast charging. I planned on never using the fast charge but when your kids...

GIDs is a measure of the estimated power in an unknown unit of measurement. LeafSpy was reverse engineered from the data available without the help of Nissan. This created some uncertainty. What exactly is a GID? Is there a proper/improper way to measure some of the things in LeafSpy? What is...

LeafSpy is an app available for iOS or Android that connects to the car with an OBD2 Dongle and lets you scan the car for information stored in the BMS etc

Where are you buying this car from?(dealer or individual) How good a deal? Have you checked it with LeafSpy? The fact it has so few miles and so much time what was the condition the car was stored in? Even LeafSpy can leave you with a false impression because if the car has not driven much...

I heard that it was the leaf, I guess I was wrong, I googled it just out of curiosity and it said the first mass production EV of the modern era is the EV1 by GM. My main point stands, the car has been around a long time and there are many safe guards as well as a long track record. You should...

Paulo I understand your frustration and concern. There are people that have cars that can’t drive at all and don’t get offered a loaner, some people do get offered a loaner. There are people that have bad batteries and no warranty coverage left. This means you’re in a better spot than some but...

Bruce There is another thread that is similar enough that it has some really good and possibly helpful things for you to try. I will include a link to it here and please let us know if it helps and what fixed it or if while your working through this you have more information or questions...

When it’s frosty I often get the same warnings and sometimes it clears on that drive sometimes it doesn’t until the drive home when it’s warmer. Can’t count on those things in certain weather. I really enjoy driving my 2020 SL Plus.

I don’t know if you still need this information but the far left screen behind the steering wheel shows battery stuff. Top screen is usually the power wheel full size, the next one down shows the time to charge followed by the battery temp and the capacity. There are 12 bars of capacity but...

I believe that this car still has warranty coverage and there are many threads on here that discuss the process and how to get it started. There is not enough information in this post to say how bad your battery may be. Screen shots when the car at higher and lower SOC, under extreme conditions...

At least the vehicle is under warranty. The good news is the vehicle may end up getting a new battery under warranty. The bad news is that it’s a long sometimes difficult and frustrating process. The dealer won’t do anything until the car give the right fault code unless you have video evidence...

I totally agree, I really hope this can be fixed much cheaper and easier than replacing the whole battery. Good luck.

Any extreme will show the weak points more than the norm. Battery high or low SOC. Extreme cold and extreme working conditions like up a hill on the freeway. During these times a weak cell or multiple may be exposed. The weak cell might be slightly off and not causing a problem or the vehicle...

The easiest way is the charge timer, I usually just add a little extra time to the 75% charge time estimate

I’m not a fan of the cover either, I would like to tint my windows and just remove the cover like I did on my previous car that came with tinted windows
