Not sure where this goes, but posting here. New 2023 Leaf S - took possession last Dec.
Last week, driving home one night, going about 60 mph on the highway, car just died. No power to motors/wheels. Dash lit up with various errors. Towed to dealer, no feedback yet on what the problem it. Thankfully i was already on an exit ramp, otherwise it was a potentially fatal accident waiting to happen as my car slowly drifted in neutral.
Once it came to a stop, it was in neutral, would not start again. Applied parking brake to keep it from rolling.
Errors on dash:
- When Parked Apply Parking Brake
- Service 12V Charge system Apply Parking Brake
- Key System Error See Owner's Manual
Just posting here for visibility and awareness to others. There is a design flaw in the system that caused the car to lose all power to wheels while at highway speeds. Will post updates when i hear what they learned.
Nissan doing little in terms of communications or even a loaner at this point.
