Sorry, but as my wife can attest, I read this forum extensively. Nissan never mentioned that there would be a salvage value on the batteries for those who bought.
Secondly, the battery does not require excessive miles to degrade. Heat and time are sufficient, even in LA.

- You are assuming they aren't "offering anything for the battery". It is obvious that they meant to take the salvage value of the battery off of the new battery when calculating the monthly lease rate.
- "offers the same battery lease price to a person who leases the car and does not own it or the battery" : There are several possibilities here. Since the full program was never published we don't know the exact details. Let us take one scenario of returning the old battery to lease the new one. In this case, I don't particularly understand why someone who is leasing the car would want to exchange the battery - since it is still under warranty. In case it has severely degraded because of the miles put on (far in excess of the usual mileage) - the leaser would pay the price in terms of mileage. As for as Nissan is concerned they are getting back a degraded battery that has the same salvage value, whether leased or owned. So I don't see why the lease on the new battery would be any different.
So, stop the silly hyperbole and let us all discuss thus like adults.
