    I've got cells dying What should I do the dealership and the leaf spy shows no codes but

    yes - my understanding and experience was until the code they wouldn't do anything of substance. Once its really bad like it sounds like yours is - I think the code will be soon - so just try to use it as you can.

    The battery replacement/buyback thread.

    I took my 2017 into the dealer today for the regular check up and wanted to ping them about all this warranty stuff esp since we have dropped from 12 to 9 bars in our 2 years or so. The service tech I had was very helpful. They gave me 5 stars for each of my battery usage things (I guess like...

    The battery replacement/buyback thread.

    Im confused about when/how Nissan and team decide which of all these paths to take. About 1 year or maybe 1.5 years ago We had our 2017 SL 30KWH thrown the battery code after having lots of pain with messed up actual range. After reading lots on the boards I started to develop hope my dealer...

    Ok - after Boulder Nissan having the car for 8 days we picked it up today. I asked if they had done the deep battery test like the one which allowed them to trigger the replacement and they didn't know. Already we know from the return drive and battery use it is way better. Once I was home I...

    well - IDK if its obvious its cheaper - ya it generally makes sense - there are fairly convincing posts on various boards of people with singular or small number of bad cells receiving new complete batteries - in fact the 40kwh -- but I hear y - makes sense to me - if a you tuber can replace a...

    Us too for sure. I guess I wonder if a consumer in my situation would have been more likely to get a new battery pack if one were to locate a dealer which was not certified for module/cell replacement.. oh well - will be pretty dang happy if it works as well as should have all along

    Ok - Boulder Nissan today told me that they are replacing the module so unlike other stories of the past and in the UK this dealer at least is authorized to replace modules inside the battery pack and that is what Nissan US told them to do. New module in 2-4 days and then work is 3 days or so ...

    In dealer today - they also see the bad cell - they say they need to do a more complex battery test - drain it 0% then charge 100% - so Im out a car for tonight. They also claim that even if its a warranty replacement Nissan only pays for 3 days of loaner - so if the part is going to take a...

    Last night the car started with full charge and the yellow warning light - and then turtled still with > 96 predicted miles - Leafspy shows one cell ~3.83 and all the rest around 4.03 : 213mV The leaf sure isn't very clear about what is the problem and my blue tooth OBD reader and app seem...

    I think I got a semi straight answer from the dealer that they needed the code to happen but the head tech implied he expected it to happen soonish given our info. Wife has been commuting with it - suffering through not using much heat for fear of not making it home even though I have encouraged...

    On a recent drive nearing my house with a lowish SoC I accelerated strong and saw leafspy report a delta of something like 440mv - but no code or shut down yet

    A further realization about leafspy showing 37% vs car showing 7% is that explains the missing energy - I was earlier doing math showing the 4miles per kwh didnt line up with a 25kwh battery and the miles to low % - but if car saying 10% means there is really 40% the missing power is still in...

    well I sure don't want to brick the car.. I guess I hope you mean being stranded as opposed to damaging the car. I don't feel confident about inducing turtle mode - but I also don't really understand why causing it to go into turtle is likely to trigger these error codes. Im going to be...

    while looking for more info on the CVLI I did find a post on a different board same car within last year in England with nearly identical data - same one cell really low on leafspy histogram. Same story from dealer about no problem - regular issues.. - they apparently called Nissan who got...

    New to me low mile 2017 with poor range?

    Right - and it sounds like even if I pay the $85 for their test and the see the same result - they cant/wont do anything either - its true I can push / escalate. I can talk to the manager and then the owner and then call Nissan no gas line and discuss and escalate as per their docs. If I were...

    New to me low mile 2017 with poor range?

    ya - IDK why I didn't just share that info but I have been working with Boulder Nissan - they are the dealer in question. If its true that Nissan corp wont entertain battery issues without 8 bars or code then I guess we may have gotten had by the dealer but I guess it seems a double edged...

    New to me low mile 2017 with poor range?

    Im in CO north of Denver a little bit. See it seems its in the dealers interest to help determine a battery should be fixed or replaced under warranty so it seems like they would want to help and would be very clear on the rules and guidelines about said replacement. The only extra twist with...

    So I just got off the phone with the dealer I bought the leaf from. The service person claimed to not really have exposure to or knowledge about this type of issue. Told me the car is meant for driving in city not 50mph! I don't understand this sort of stance when they would benefit from...

    @Sagebrush - sure thing - Ill grab it when the wife is home from work - should be down to at least 35 from commute - and maybe ill drive it around a little too. I tried to get leafspy running on a spare phone so I think Ill have a trip report from at least the way to work, and if lucky on the...
