Nissan announced recall R24B2 on September 19, 2024. The vehicle is at risk of overheating/fire when FAST CHARGING. Nissan has not provided ANY solution to this issue in the 14 months the recall has been open. Dealers have no information, Nissan says they are "working" on a software fix but give no date or schedule for repair. The official response from Nissan Corporation has been to tell us that they believe the recall solution of "DO NOT FAST CHARGE" is sufficient and they do not need to provide us any further assistance or compensation. The vehicle cannot be driven further than a single charge will allow because major EV charging station companies have now BANNED Nissan Leaf's from using their stations because of fire risk. This means outside of my HOME, I cannot charge the Leaf AT ALL. There is no usability of a vehicle that cannot be charged or powered outside of the home for risk of fire or damage to the battery. I was charged MORE money to have fast charging and a larger battery in this vehicle to be able to utilize it for ALL of my driving needs, including the ability to fast charge to increase range of the vehicle. Our vehicle had swollen battery modules that had bent or damaged the stacks and required a new battery to be installed due to the swelling of the modules leaving the vehicle unable to power on. Nissan replaced the battery in October 2025, but informed us despite a NEW battery the vehicle STILL CANNOT BE FAST CHARGED, as they are still unsure of how to fix the rapid heating of the cells. The vehicle will likely see the same swelling and degradation of the batteries without a PROPER solution from Nissan, leaving me to minimize any driving of a vehicle I am actively paying for, to avoid risk to my family, home and vehicle.
My 2019 Nissan Leaf SV (VIN [XXX] ) is affected by Recall 24V‑700 / Nissan R24B2, a critical battery defect with no available fix since September 2024. Nissan has acknowledged the defect but has not provided any remedy. Despite repeated follow-ups with Nissan Consumer Affairs and their Arbitration Specialist, I have received no updates or resolution. The vehicle’s charging performance and safety are materially impaired. This defect has persisted for over one year, violating Nissan’s federal recall obligations.

trying to fast charge the car, i noticed some buzzing and a weird smell. i have unplugged the charger right away. But definitely this is a HUGE safety risk.
The contact owns a 2019 Nissan Leaf. The contact received notification of the federal safety agency Campaign Number: 24V700000 (Electrical System). The contact had not experienced a failure with the vehicle but called to report that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was informed of a lack of parts availability to complete the recall repair.
Manufacturer has not remedied recall for over a year, continually pushing recall remedy date back. No new recall remedy date is available. Car is not functional for lvl 3 charging as advertised on sale.
State of charge wildly fluctuates at charge less than about 60%, making the car unusable except for very short trips between charges. Lack of fast charging (active recall) means that car cannot be used for its intended purpose
the federal safety agency Recall Number24V-700 It has been over 1yr since the recall was issued for fire risk on the Nissan leaf and still no fix is available. Nissan continues to ask users to not charge with level 3 charging which in my leaf was an expensive option. Limits my ability to use my car for longer trips. How much time do they legally have to remedy the issue?
The following Nissan recall: the federal safety agency ID: 24V‑700 NISSAN ID: R24B2 The issue was recognized in October of 2024, and owners of affected vehicles were advised not to use level 3 chargers, otherwise the battery cells could experience excessive lithium deposits, creating a risk of explosion. A fix was promised by November 2024, and then rescheduled to be done by spring of 2025 (Nissan's website still says March 2025 as date for remedy). Most recently, Nissan sent out a communication that the fix would be done by the "third quarter" of 2025. This is not only a safety hazard, as if someone forgets the recall, or is unaware of it, there is significant risk. On a practical level, I cannot undertake road trips with my vehicle, as the length of time it would take to recharge on level 2 simply is not logistically feasible. Even for daily commuting, I've had to spend considerable time the past year finding level 2 chargers and waiting for my vehicle to slowly charge. The length of time this has taken is excessive and Nissan should be either buying back all affected vehicles or else offering owners like myself significant settlement checks for the inconvenience.
Nissan issued a recall for my car in September 2024, stating that 2019 Leafs cannot use CHAdeMo fast charging until the problem has been remedied. Nissan gave multiple estimates of when the recall would be completed (first in the fall/winter of 2024, then early 2025). Despite the recall being most recently estimated to be remedied in March 2025, it is now October 2025 and there is no solution, nor any recourse for the lack of remedy. Accordingly, for over a year, I have been unable to use fast charging, making it impossible to take any trip longer that 135 miles (my range on one charge). Using a level 2 charger takes ~8 hours to charge meaning that if the battery gets close to zero, I need to stay in one location for at least 8 hours before I can make it back home. Nissan has not presented any workable solutions nor any kind of compensation for this considerable defect for over 1 year.
I have the same complaint as the other 2019 leaf owners. It's been over a years since I was told a recall was in effect for the car I haven't been able to drive it any significant distance because I can't use a fast charger. Additionally, the rear camera that had been recalled and supposedly fixed is now malfunctioning again. When I contacted Nissan I did get in touch with the arbitration department but they are giving me the runaround
Per the federal safety agency ID Number: 24V700000: Summary Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2019-2020 LEAF vehicles equipped with a Level 3 quick charging port. The lithium-ion battery may overheat during Level 3 charging. Remedy Owners are advised not to use Level 3 quick charging until the remedy is completed. Dealers will update the battery software, free of charge. Interim letters notifying owners of the safety risk were mailed October 10, 2024. A second notice will be sent once the remedy becomes available, anticipated in Quarter 3 of 2025. This is a phased recall. Owners may contact Nissan Customer Service at 1‑800‑867‑7669. Nissan's number for this recall is R24B2. It has been a year with no fix and no remedy in sight, and it is now Quarter 4 of 2025. Level 3 quick charging allows for longer roadtrips and the use of the car has been limited to only local driving since the recall was issued.
R24B2 Battery recall has been going on for a full year now with remedies being moved every time the date has been reached. Nissan refuses a buyback, but still has no solution to the no fast charging mandate. The car would NOT have been purchased if I had known there is essentially no level 3 charging on this car.

I have been waiting an entire year for Nissan to resolve the battery issue. I have purchased another house 240 miles away and I need to charge my leaf at least once to move it to my new home. If I fast charge the car it may catch fire and if it does this without the recall being resolved my insurance won't pay for the loss since Nissan has warned the car can not be fast charged. Waiting an entire year is not reasonable. Please force Nissan to resolve the recall by either a software update or battery replacement.

I recently purchased a 2019 Nissan Leaf that is currently affected by the federal safety agency Recall Number 24V‑700. This recall was initially issued on September 19, 2024, "instructing customers not to use Level 3 quick charging until the remedy is completed". The initial expectation of a corrective remedy was November 2024, which was later changed "Due to an unexpected delay in the final remedy software development" to Spring 2025. Today is September 22, 2025, over a full year from the date that the recall was initiated, and well beyond "Spring 2025", with no remedy available and I'm unable to safely use Level 3 quick charging. I believe this falls into the category of failing or unable "to remedy this safety recall for your vehicle in a timely manner" and Nissan needs to be held accountable for this safety issue that is preventing me from fully utilizing my vehicle as expected.
Nissan has issued a recall for the fast charging system on this vehicle in September, 2024. Over a year later, there has been no resolution to the charging issue. I live in a rural area where medical appointments, shopping and family activities are outside of the car's battery range. The lack of a solution has rendered my car useless for most times I would need a vehicle. This is my only car so I often need to carpool or borrow to get places.

Recall has been standing for 1 year. I can’t drive my car as normal and as sold because I can’t use fast charge
The contact owns a 2019 Nissan Leaf. The contact received notification of the federal safety agency Campaign Number: 24V700000 (Electrical System); however, parts were not yet available. The contact received the first recall notification a year prior, and the parts were still not available. The contact later received the second recall notification, which stated that parts were available; however, the dealer was contacted and again informed the contact that the parts were not available. The contact stated that the vehicle was useless without being able to utilize the quick charge. In addition, the contact rented a vehicle three times to attend planned family events because of the unrepaired recall. The manufacturer was made aware, and a case was filed. The contact had not experienced a failure regarding the unrepaired recall.
Took to dealership because charge went from 70 to 20% in like 2 miles and then to turtle mode. I took it to Jackie Cooper Nissan Tulsa and they reset the codes, but it happened the very next time it was driven on the highway
I purchased by 2019 Nissan leaf brand new from a Nissan dealership. My electric vehicle is our only vehicle and has been effectively disabled for out of town driving by a safety recall for the traction battery for nearly a year. Nissan continues to be unable to repair or resolve this safety recall and has offered no alternatives other than telling me not to fast charge the vehicle for fear of it catching fire. I have spent countless hours talking to a regional specialist and then being escalated to an executive specialist both of which offer no resolution. I want my vehicle repaired and returned to the originally purchased function or repurchased by Nissan. With the multiple delays in repairing this safety recall up to a year now I have no faith in Nissan to reach any satisfactory repair. I no longer want to own or drive this vehicle and the fault lays entirely with Nissan for their handling of this concern. I fear for my families safety when driving or using this vehicle because of the stated risk of electric battery fire. Nissan continues to have failed to offer any repair or inspection of the battery to determine our risk of a vehicle battery fire.

I am currently using a 2019 NISSAN LEAF electric vehicle and the vehicle is still under NISSAN's 7-year warranty. In September 2024, Nissan sent me a notice advising me to temporarily stop fast charging the vehicle to avoid overheating the battery and possibly exploding and wait for them to fix the vehicle charger. Two months later, Nissan continued to send me a new notice and continued to schedule me until spring 2025. I still trusted and waited for them, in June 25 Nissan sent me a third notice to wait until the third quarter of this 25. Up to now, more than 9 months have passed but they still do not have spare parts to replace my vehicle and I still do not know if Nissan will have spare parts for my vehicle by the end of the third quarter of this 25? in the past 9 months, i have had to spend a lot of time every time i need to charge my car. just because i don't have my own house so i have to take my car to the charging station and every time i charge i have to wait for about 5 hours. i don't understand what nissan wants now? ◦
Fast charging recall issued almost a year ago and Nissan still has no fix for it.
I took my car in for a few recalls and was informed that the Manufacturer Recall Number R24B2/the federal safety agency Recall Number 24V‑700 fix was not available. The recall has been in effect for 1 year now and there is still no remedy. This is affecting the ability to use the car to its fullest due to the safety risk associated with Level 3 quick charging. If I was to quick charge the car it could result in damage to the battery and even fire. I cannot sell the car either due to the recall. Please have Nissan make this right. They need to fix the issue or initiate a buyback.
