There was already another thread about this. It applies to '18 to 23 Leafs. See https://mynissanleaf.com/viewtopic.php?p=632726#p632726. Any Leafs that were built after the remedy existed probably aren't affected and thus aren't recalled.

That thread title says nothing about 2018 Leafs.

It would be best to change the title of the first thread to include "'18 to '22 Leafs" and then add these posts to it.

My '21 is sitting at the shop, because the recall update Bricked it. It happened about 3 days after the 3Yr factory non-EV warranty ended...
