Consumer Description

My 2021 Nissan Leaf battery does not hold charge for more than 80 miles. Its has a chademo charger and my daughter could not get to next charger. The car battery has a system issue. The car main battery cells keep dying. Nissan replaced 4 cells last year and now more cells need replacement. These cars are becoming hazards on road as they loose charge state and its not possible to get to the next charging point even on a 230 mile journey. Nissan is aware of the issue but not willing to help proactively. I have been sold a lemon. I know of atleast 4 other families who have same model year cars and all have faced issue with the battery. I would request you all to please look into the matter and make sure the manufacturer is held accountable for not taking action proactively. They are cheating the consumers.
