2022 Nissan Leaf: problems, recalls and reliability

“After having the recall (Recall 25V655) remedy applied to my car, it will not restart after charging. I charged it once after receiving it back (the dealership had not fully charged it during the recall work - it was returned at 76%). And it immediately started throwing errors and will only be in neutral now. The Dealership service center maintains that this is not the result of the recall issue or the recall fix, which is quite unbelievable. I do not believe the recall remedy is actually a remedy.”Owner report · Unknown Or Other · Jul 2026

“The contact owns a 2022 Nissan Leaf. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V655000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM); however, the part to do the recall repair was unavailable. The local dealer was contacted and confirmed that the part was not available. The contact stated that a Level 3 charging error message was displayed, and the vehicle stalled. The vehicle was later towed to the local dealer, who performed an electrical software update, but the failure reoccurred. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 86,830.”Owner report · Electrical System · Jun 2026

“I was at a red light on a slight decline with my foot on the regular brake. I am 99% certain the Epedal was on. Something startled me and I took my foot off the regular brake, but the Epedal should have held the car still. It didn't, and I rolled into a Jeep SUV, smashing in the front of my car where the charging port is. Progressive Insurance says my car is totalled. The airbags did not deploy, and no one was hurt, but my passenger, an 89-year old with a recent hip replacement, could have been compromised. I am researching Black Box retrieval options, but they appear to cost more than my deductible. There were no warnings that the system was faulty.”Owner report · Service Brakes · May 2026

“I feel like the manufacture has failed to remedy recall 25V-655 in a timely manner. Not being able to fast charge is not a workable solution for the function of the car.”Owner report · Unknown Or Other · Apr 2026

“Due to Recall 25V-655, I am unable to safely use level 3 charging. The first notice I received of this issue (in October, 2025), stated that a remedy would be available by December, 2025. I just received a second interim owner notification that states a remedy will be available within the 2026 calendar year. This is not a timely remedy, as I have already waited 5 months for this fix to an important safety problem, and am now being told I may have to wait another 9 months.”Owner report · Electrical System · Mar 2026

“The contact owns a 2022 Nissan Leaf. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V655000 (Electrical System); however, the part for the recall repair was not yet available. The contact stated that the unrepaired recall was a huge inconvenience because only the slow charge function could be used. The manufacturer was contacted; however, the contact was informed that the remedy was not yet developed. The contact had not experienced a failure.”Owner report · Electrical System · Feb 2026

“The contact owns a 2022 Nissan Leaf. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V655000 (Electrical System); however, the part to do the recall repair was not available. The dealer was contacted, and the contact was informed that parts were not yet available. The contact was concerned that if the fast charger was used, there could potentially be a fire. The contact was pregnant and stated that the slow charger required too much time to recharge the battery. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, and a case was filed. The contact had not experienced a failure.”Owner report · Electrical System · Jan 2026
