NTB130822021-05-10. Service bulletin. POWER TRAIN; SEATS. SERVICE INFORMATION The DC Fast Charger requires periodic air filter maintenance. If the air filters are not serviced and become restricted, the DC Fast Charger will set DTC 0x051E Thermostat Error (Charger malfunction) and suspend operation until the restriction is cleared and the power to the DC Fast Charger is cycled. The air filters should all be inspected 30 days after the unit is first put into service, to determine the levels of individual restriction. - Any air filters found to be heavily restricted during the initial 30 day inspection should be serviced at a monthly or bi-monthly interval. - If none of the air filters are heavily restricted, they should be serviced and then rechecked at 90 day intervals (some air filters may require less maintenance than others). The Internal air filter may only need annual replacement unless the site is extremely dusty. It is the only air filter that requires the removal of the external charger casing. This should only be performed by a licensed electrician. See this bulletin for further detail.

EXPIRATION NOTIF2021-01-08. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT ADAPTIVE/MOBILITY; EQUIPMENT; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. Expiration Notification - 2G Telematics Hardware Replacement Campaign Summary In 2016, Nissan launched a Customer Satisfaction Initiative (CSI) that provided clients with an opportunity to update the Telematics Control Unit (TCU) in vehicles equipped with a TCU designed to connect to the 2G cellular network.

Once the 2G cellular network was discontinued, there was no access to the NissanConnect features without a TCU hardware upgrade. Because AT&T will shut down its 3G network on December 31, 2021, Nissan is discontinuing this Customer Satisfaction Initiative to upgrade from 2G to 3G compatible hardware effective immediately. 3G services will continue to be provided until December 31, 2021. Vehicles equipped with a TCU that connects to the 3G cellular network will have no access to the NissanConnect EV features, including Remote Charge Status Check, Remote Climate Control and Driving History after that time. What Dealers Should Do 1.Service Comm will deactivate PC449 and PC450 on any VINs on December 22, 2020. No further dealer action is required.

P9312 2011-19 LE2019-08-12. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT. Lithium-ion Battery Bonding Plate Voluntary Service Campaign ***** Campaign Summary***** Nissan is committed to the safety, security and satisfaction of our customers and their passengers, as well as the safety of Nissan technicians. Nissan will be conducting a voluntary service campaign in North America on certain MY 2011-19 Nissan LEAF vehicles to replace the Lithium-ion Battery Bonding Plates. The plates may corrode and in areas where road salt is extensively used, could break. In rare cases during vehicle servicing in which both plates fail, the battery cover plate is removed and the vehicle is left in READY mode, a technician could be exposed to electric shock if all EV servicing safety instructions are not followed. Although no such incidents have been reported to Nissan, this voluntary service campaign is being conducted as a preventative measure out of an abundance of caution. The issue does not affect battery or vehicle performance. ***** What Dealers Should Do ***** 1. Verify if vehicles are affected by this Voluntary Service Campaign using Service Comm or DBS National Service History ? Open Campaigns I.D. P9312. - New vehicles in dealer inventory can be also be identified using DBS (Sales-> Vehicle Inventory, and filter by Open Campaign). - Refer to NPSB 15-460 for additional information 2.

Dealers should use NTB19-055 to remedy any vehicles subject to this campaign. 4. Once repaired, dealers should submit the claim, using the claims coding provided, and release the vehicle.
