Consumer Description

Nissan issued a recall for my car in September 2024, stating that 2019 Leafs cannot use CHAdeMo fast charging until the problem has been remedied. Nissan gave multiple estimates of when the recall would be completed (first in the fall/winter of 2024, then early 2025). Despite the recall being most recently estimated to be remedied in March 2025, it is now October 2025 and there is no solution, nor any recourse for the lack of remedy. Accordingly, for over a year, I have been unable to use fast charging, making it impossible to take any trip longer that 135 miles (my range on one charge). Using a level 2 charger takes ~8 hours to charge meaning that if the battery gets close to zero, I need to stay in one location for at least 8 hours before I can make it back home. Nissan has not presented any workable solutions nor any kind of compensation for this considerable defect for over 1 year.
