2 years ago I purchased an EV, to be exact it’s a 2017 Nissan Leaf. I purchased this used from a non Nissan dealer, which doesn’t make a difference because Nissan warranty is from Nissan not the dealer. So now on with the story. I purchased this car with 25,000 miles on it and have now 40,000 plus’s a few on it and the battery died on my way to a destination. I had it towed to a Nissan dealer to check it out. They said the battery was trash and they would have to replace it. The good news is it’s still under Nissan Warranty, the bad news is they say it will take 3-6 months to fix it. So it now sets at the Nissan dealer wating for it to be repaired and both the dealer and Nissan say they don’t give out loner cars. What bothers me the most is the government is pushing EVs and the Nissan company doesn’t have a battery to replace my battery with, good planning on Nissan’s warranty department. Now I guss I’m supposed to ether weight for the car to be repaired or purchase another vehicle, guess what, it won’t be a Nissan. Hard to believe these companies spend millions on advertising how wonderful there vehicles and warranty are, then when it comes to w×× advertisements, my bad advertisements cost me nothing.

Dave. My son has a Lexus. When he has to take it in for repair at Lexus they give him a loaner car. His car is out of warranty & yes it is expensive to repair but it sure as hell beats having to add the cost of a rental to the car problem. We live in Florida.
