There are 1 owner-reported engine complaints for the 2022 Nissan Leafin NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
I bought my vehicle used, in May 2025. Then, in October (if not earlier), a safety recall was issued relating to the fast charging of the EV battery. This recall tells me that I’m not to use the CHAdeMO charging port due to battery fire risk. Now, almost 6 months later, there still isn’t a remedy available. Not being able to fast charge puts a huge restriction on where I’m able to go in my car. NO ONE wants to sit around for hours waiting for their car battery to recharge in order to get to their destination. I have contacted Nissan’s corporate office to ask if they would offer me a loaner vehicle for my longer distance drives, but they said no and didn’t have any other assistance to offer until the remedy is available. I would like to know, are they given any sort of deadline to remedy such a HUGE safety recall, or what most people would consider a DEFECT? If so, what kind of penalty do they face if this deadline isn’t met? If not, is there anything I can do to hold them accountable for selling me a defective Electric Vehicle? Thank you for your time
