Description:
High-voltage traction battery / propulsion system repeatedly malfunctions. First incident a“ Aug 2023 (~91,000 mi). Vehicle displayed aœEV System No Powera with DTC P31E7. After parking, the car would not restart; I was stranded > 2 hours on a surface road until towed. Nissan dealer (Napleton St Louis) replaced a battery module under warranty and cited Nissan TSB NTB23-024 (bent retention plate in 62 kWh pack). Vehicle returned to service. Second incident a“ Apr 2024 (~128,000 mi). Same symptoms re-appeared: dashboard showed 200 mi remaining, but under moderate acceleration the range meter plunged to ~80 mi within seconds, but releasing the accelerator the range would go back up, but plunge again once accelerating again. the car gets less then the then half what the dash claims on a full charge, leaving me to not know what the full range truly is. Two dealerships have said I’m having the same issue as previously, except my car is not displaying the inhabitation error. Current safety concern: The vehicleas range indicator fluctuates drastically under load (e.g., 190 a†’ 70 a†’ 140 miles) whenever the accelerator is pressed, suggesting instability or failure in the high-voltage battery. Because remaining range is no longer reliable, I have stopped using the vehicle for daily transportation to avoid being strandeda”especially on highways where there is no safe place to pull over or access to chargers. A sudden loss of motive power at high speed creates a crash risk for both occupants and surrounding traffic.
