Nissan is a difficult company to work with;  Shortly after I purchased my car
I discovered the left outside mirror was cracked across...difficult to
detect.  The local dealer immediately said: "I must have done it."  Right
away he was set to deny the car was damaged when I bought
it...confrontational right now...since I can fix many things myself, I
thanked him for his lack of cooperation, canceled all but the work covered
under warranty. And, I will only go back if there is no place else.

Additionally, Nissan is shortsighted and sets policy for their EVs as if
they were still only selling gassers.  Their worst policy mistake is not
planning for battery upgrades to their older EVs.  That has resulted in a
large grouping of about 250,000 Leafs, 2011-2016, with the lowest resale
value of any car in the market.  No one wants to replace the same range
battery in a car that's worth less than the battery.  The replacement
battery with the same range spec costs about $6-$7,000 installed in a 2011
car that sells for about $6,000.

Nissan's policies to date appear to be based more on not selling EVs than
trying to sell them.  I expect a new game in the lower priced EVs in two
days when Tesla announces the Model 3.
