Hi all
Just wondering if anyone is having or have had this issue - our leaf 2018 had a fault come up the other day 'Service EV System - Unable to restart after power off' we took straight to Nissan dealer workshop as was in middle of school drop off's as worried if we turned off it really wouldn't start (it really doesn't start again) anyway the mechanic said it'll be something small don't worry - 5 days later they've said massive battery fault due to battery leak, we're not covered under the 8 year warranty as we've done 113k miles - they've said the only place to get repaired is Gateshead Newcastle and it'll will cost £6-£13k :shock: - I'm wondering if anyone else is having this issue if car is being used like a normal petrol car??? we are really careful not to overcharge, cool down etc etc. and just gutted that we have no car at present unless we find thousands of pounds.... clearly i'm frustrated as any savings we've ever made will be used plus more to repair for a 5 year old car.... this is our 2nd leaf (we upgraded from original style) and my worry now is will this happen every 5 years or 100+k miles??
