I have a leaf 2013 S. It was delivered late Feb this year. For the time I have been driving it, I love it. However, I felt electric shock today which makes think it might not be safe.
My car was charging at home (120V) when this happened. I have about 75 miles left on it. I first felt it after I opened the rear door on the driver side. I happen to touch the black rubber that circles the door frame (on the vehicle, not on the door). I touched the spot several times and felt electric shocks each time. The second time I felt it is when I touched the metal underneath the driver seat. It was much stronger. So I stopped messing around the car after this.
I am waiting for my husband to get home and get a multimeter to test it. Has anyone experience this before? I think I need to take it back to the dealer for them to take a look at the battery. Please comment! thanks!
