Consumer Description

Nissan has reported than some cars could abruptly catch fire while DC fast charging due to excessive lithium deposits within the battery cells. In certain circumstances, those excess deposits could create additional electrical resistance while fast charging, overheating the battery pack and causing a fire. The NHTSA's reference number is 24V-700. This problem was first discovered in 2024 and officially reported in September 2024. This is nearly a year and a half ago and limits the usefulness of the vehicle to local driving only. It is ridiculous that a remedy still hasn't been implemented.
