I've leased a new 2013 Leaf S with large charger option. Twice now, the 12v battery has been found dead, after one week, then two weeks of ownership. Calling the dealer produced no useful information. I have discovered that powering the Leaf off from ACC mode causes the battery to drain to stone dead in about 4-5 hours. This is not the infamous "double push" syndrome others have discussed. It is some kind of glitch in the 2013. Since I quit doing this (it was, both times, when I powered it up in ACC to check the miles on the charge, then giving ONE PUSH to power it off.
Since I have avoided doing this, the battery has remained fully charged for over a week. I've been monitoring battery voltage during the last week, and notice that it is a little higher when the car is plugged in, (after charge is done) than when unplugged. Note that the 12v battery only gets charged when the main contactors are closed, which is in ready mode, or during charging.
ACC mode is not your friend! Use it very carefully, and don't power the car down from this mode. Go back to ready, then off.
