Haven't been charged for a LEAF oil change, LOL.
They do charge a little for replacing brake fluid every few years, and a
yearly battery check after the first three years. That's about it other
than tires.
There have only been one or two software updates since we got our LEAF.
Like most non-Tesla cars they aren't adding features but they did
address a bug related to passenger air bag detection.
Enjoy your Tesla.

True for 2011/12 LEAF models.
However the LEAF's guess-o-meter was improved later models. Even better,
a useful battery-percentage-remaining display option was added.
A good point! Also points out the Leaf weakness of not having OTA
software updates ala Tesla. My Tesla started with a not very useful
fisheye backup camera. After a few months, lines appeared on the
display that marked the car's path. You could then tell exactly what
territory the backing car was going to move over. Also, you used to
have to go the the service center to get new/different tire pressure
sensors programmed. Like when you had a flat and changed wheels. Now,
you press a button on the display and the TPS thing reprograms itself.
There have been hundreds, or perhaps thousands, of such tweaks. No
visits to the dealer required. Nissan tries to get Leaf owners into
dealerships at every opportunity. I've heard of some Leaf owners being
charged for oil changes during such visits.
