2019 Nissan LEAF PLUS - Ratings, Complaints and Recalls

"the backup camera does not work correctly. it shows blank in stead of surrounding video. sometimes closing the back cover again can fix the issue but most of time no video is displayed."

"infotainment system frequently resets. this occurs rarely at times while driving (inconvenient, not a significant problem) but it frequently occurs within 10 seconds of starting car at which time the backup camera cannot display. this is a safety concern because it means backing up without safety backup camera working."

"having issues with the back up camera it will randomly not work, showing a black screen instead of rearview. other times the image is excessively dark compared to other surround camera views or has horizontal lines that interfere with view. car is available for inspection. i have reported to the dealer multiple times. they have not been able to replicate. the problem is intermittent, dealer has not been able to replicate. asked that i take video when it occurs which i have done. no warning lights or lamp or consistent pattern to warn when the issue will occur. most recent incident noted below."

"rear camera shows black screen when backing up. guidance lines are still present. research online indicates this to be a common issue with my vehicle."

"car backup camera stopped working. screen is black or showing green and pink static lines. several months prior the car entertainment system would come on momentarily for few seconds when the car was off (not powered). other occasional issues related to blue tooth not recognizing phone ( not sure if all of these issues are related)"

"the issue with our car is that the distance-to-empty (dte) calculation for miles remaining for battery charge is very inaccurate. this issue causes the car to prematurely alert the driver that the battery is depleted when it truly is not depleted. while not a true safety issue, it's a driver distraction that can certainly lead to a safety issue. here's an example of the problem: 1. fully charge vehicle- the dte registers 223 miles remaining; reset trip meters. the leafspy application shows a 215.9 miles which appears the more accurate reading. 2. drive 158 miles, the dte now says only 3 miles remaining. (the dte dramatically drops after 100 miles of driving each time). the car's historic miles/kwh is 3.9 and is consistent so issue is not related to lost efficiency. 3. drive another 14 miles to 172 miles, leafspy indicates a 23.8% battery state of charge and 49.5 miles remaining to 2% charge 5. check the math for leafspy: 216 - 172 = 44 miles 6. i have been auditing the car for a few months and leafspy is super accurate. the battery is good, the nissan dte calculation is not. we have taken the car to two dealers and have contacted nissan ev customer support (1-877-664-2738). i warned nissan i was going to issue a report so things get documented more."

"the rear view mirror camera does not display an image on the console. visibility behind the car is very poor without this camera due to the car's design, creating a hazardous driving condition."

"backup camera issue on a fairly frequent basis the backup camera does not function. the other cameras (side mirror, front, etc) always work correctly. closing the rear hatch "firmly" typically resolves the issue and restores the clrear camera function. opening/closing the rear hatch at some later point may or may not cause the camera to fail again."

"the backup camera on our 2019 nissan leaf (vin : [xxx] works sporadically. there's a recall for the same issue but it doesn't cover our model year. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)."

"2019 nissan leaf. on multiple occasions during hard acceleration the throttle would stick wide open and not release. 06/15/21, 06/29/21, 07/23/21, 10/01,21. i would have to stomp on the brake pedal and make several attempts before i could get the throttle to release. i have reported the issue to the nissan dealership and on 10/02/2021 they diagnosed it as a braking issue and said they found no problem or faults. the issue is intermittent and has been reported by other nissan leaf owners. very dangerous issue that needs resolved!!"
