What 35 owners told NHTSA about the 2016 Nissan Leaf Plus (62 Kwh Battery)

DECEMBER 07, 2016 I BOUGHT NISSAN LEAF 2016 IN JUNE 30, 2016. ON NOVEMBER 29, 2016, IT JUST STOPPED AND NOT GOING IN REVERSE OR FORWARD, JUST STAY ON NEUTRAL AND PARK. IT HAS TWO RECALLS ISSUED BY TRANSPORT CANADA (# 2016179 AN # 2016302). NISSAN CANADA NEVER SEND MY ANY NOTIFICATION ABOUT RECALLS. ON NOVEMBER 29, 2016 IT WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP, 401/DIXIE MISSISSAUGA, ON CANADA.SINCE THEN SERVICE DEPARTMENT IS WORKING AND AFTER REPEATED CALL, THEY ARE UNABLE TO TELL ME WHATS WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. THEY DO NOT KNOW HOW LONG IT WILL TAKE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I REQUESTED A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE WHILE THEY ARE FIXING MY VEHICLE AND THE REQUEST WAS DENIED. IT LOOK LIKE A MANUFACTURING DEFECT ASSOCIATED WITH SAFETY ISSUE. SERVICE DEPARTMENT IS NOT RELEASING ANY INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROBLEM.IT IS MORE THAN ONE WEEK NOW. I HOPE THIS INFORMATION MAY BE HELPFUL FOR OWNERS AND POTENTIAL BUYERS.DECEMBER 7, 2016 8:15 PM
