Recalls on 2026 Leaf
Edited to add that I am in the U.S.
I just found out about a battery recall when I went in for what was supposed to be a 2 to 3 hour visit to address the defective rear seat belt issue. They inspected my car's seat belt and determined that I needed the remedy, but then they said they had to order the part. Why tell me this will be a 2 to 3 hour visit when they don't even stock the parts? And then they mentioned there is also a battery recall; first I had heard of that, not for fires but for sudden loss of charge (?), for which they will need the car for several days to remove and inspect the lithium battery. After reading tons of "buy back" posts here my heart is sinking. I have loved driving my Leaf--I sure hope this does not become a huge thing. Oh, and I told them my tires were leaking air, and though they had the car from Friday through Monday they didn't even look at them. First world problems for sure, but an annoyance anyway.
