NHTSA Complaint #11718874 — 2022 NISSAN LEAF

My 2022 Nissan Leaf (VIN ending 558192) is affected by recall R25C8 (Lithium-ion Battery Expansion / Fire Risk from Quick Charging). The recall, announced September 30, 2025, requires a software update to the battery management system. Nissan has advised not to use the CHAdeMO DC fast charging port until remedied. No remedy is currently available, and the software update has not been deployed. This defect substantially impairs the vehicle's use, value, and safety for its intended purpose (long-distance travel), restricting it to local driving only. The delay has caused significant loss of use. We previously contacted Nissan on October 7, 2025 (Case #55896895) with no resolution. Contacted them again February 18 2026 (Case #56332493), with no resolution. This is ongoing as of February 2026.
