Nissan Leaf

"12 v battery died with no indication of imminent failure. Car just doesn't have a 12v battery health indicator. One just needs to change the battery every year."

"The car displayed a motor failure. I had a similar issue with our 2013 Leaf and new it was the 12v battery. I wish Nissan would display a better error display related to issue being a 12V battery so it's easier on others."

"Had a loose wire possibly caused by the previous owner adding a security system."

"Had a recall performed for intermittent failure of the backup camera. Had this failure on several occasions."

""Randomly, system would reboot, especially while reversing. Rear camera needs repair. Apple Carplay randomly caused system to reboot and screen goes blank for seconds""

""It was present when I bought the vehicle. The display settings were lost every time the car was turned off. It took one year for Nissan to replace the display, which fixed the problem.""

""AC stopped blowing cold air in Sept 2024. Our local Nissan dealership said the condenser needed replacement (about $4500) & strongly hinted that the evaporator probably needed replacement too (another $4500). We later found out from an acquaintance (who had to repair the AC on all 3 of the Nissan Leafs he owned) that Nissan Leafs had a known defect with one AC component (I think it was a valve downstream of the condenser) that caused a small leak. This small leak, over time, causes the loss of refrigerant without noticeable decrease is AC cooling. The condenser is forced to work harder to compensate & eventually fails, taking the evaporator out with it. This seemed to agree with what our independent automotive repair shop found. It certainly seemed consistent with what our Nissan dealership hinted at; they could easily tell the condenser needed replacement, & they suspected (but didn't diagnose) the evaporator also needed replacement. The evaporator is apparently under the dashboard & is difficult to access, which is probably why the dealership didn't want to diagnose the evaporator. The dealership seemed familiar with the issue. The repair shop we used (recommended by the person who had to get the AC fixed on his 3 Nissan Leafs) also seemed familiar with this problem, as they performed a more exhaustive diagnosis of the AC compared to what the dealership performed.""

"The evaporator leak After only 2 years old. There is a problem with the A/C drain. There's no water coming out from the drain."

""On certain days, the car would not warm up. Nissan is aware of this issue (has seen this issue on other Leafs) and currently has NO repair, but hopes to have a repair sometime.""
