CARWINGS ENABLED ON DASHBOARD TODAY - YEAH!

Carwings was enabled today and had an actual VIN number for my April delivery. The delivery date still says "Month of April", but I expect it will change soon to an actual date.

I just checked my dashboard and low and behold-My Carwings is enabled too

I guess since my dashboard still says April (since 3 weeks or more ago), I'll get the car in a matter of weeks.

Question to Those Whom Already Have Their Leafs: How soon after Carwings enabled did you get your Leaf?

I've looked around a various threads and can't find any correlation. Also, I didn't get an email from Nissan or my dealer that Carwings was enabled.

My advice to those waiting for April-check your dashboards everyday :mrgreen:

2 weeks, 2 days. But the holiday season might have gotten in the way some. Carwings went active on 12/20 and I took delivery on 1/5.

In the second wave of deliveries ... about 4 weeks (see my signature below).

My car wings goes active today too and there was an email titled "Nissan LEAF: Delivery timing update".

BUT, still showing month of April for delivery. I was hoping better information than that!

Where on the dashboard do you see your VIN#? My Carwings opened today also. Still "Month of April".

I don't recall, except for remembering it bounced around quite a bit. I don't think it was any more than 10 days beyond the actual delivery date though.

Me too. I also got the "Nissan Leafelivery Timing Update" email; no change there. This is going to be one long month! :roll:

same here. still month of april. getting auth problems when trying to enable carwings, though.

My Carwings was activated about 4 weeks prior to delivery ("about" because the delivery date is still fluid: 'Week Of March 31' became 'WO March 25' became 'WO April 1' today -- they seem sure it will be a Friday, just not which one).

I think enabling Carwings is Nissan's version of when traveling with young kids in the car and they ask "Are we there yet?" and the adults say "Five more minutes." Knowing the kid doesn't have a clue about time, and the next time they ask they get another five minute update. :shock: We get another date to see with no clue as to when our Leaf will actually arrive

Earlier I read that the 3-year clock starts ticking when Carwings is enabled. Given that, wouldn't people want to delay activating Carwings?

My Carwings can be enabled but I haven't done it yet.

Anyone can feel free to correct me, but I don't think the clock starts ticking until you sign into Carwings for the first time while in the car.

When I just signed up I was asked if I had the car or if I was being proactive. That leads me to believe that mwalsh is correct...

Is there a "expiry date" in Carwings that you can check? If so, it would be easy to verify when the clock actually started ticking.

If you read the User agreement that you click "I agree" to on Carwings it specifically says "3 years from the purchase date of the car". YMMV
