OUR BRAND NEW NISSAN LEAF IS NOW A BRICK! MAJOR ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAULT!?

EV Channels Review

This video documents a concerning failure of a brand-new Nissan Leaf, which became inoperable with less than 500 miles on the odometer, failing to power on or shift into gear. The reviewer expresses significant surprise, noting the Leaf's historical reputation for reliability, contrasting it with other recent EV failures experienced by the channel. Initial diagnostics suggested a potential 12-volt battery issue, but a subsequent dealer inspection revealed a high-voltage insulation fault. The reviewer highlights the inconvenience and unreliability of a new vehicle experiencing such a critical failure, despite the car being under warranty and the issue not preventing the owner from getting home. The video concludes with the car being sent to the dealership for further diagnosis, promising an update on the resolution.
