Dreadful after sales support from Nissan
After just six years and 32,000 miles, our Nissan EV is a write off as a result of excessive repair costs for a part failure. With an estimate of over £8,000 to replace a drive motor, the costs exceed its market value. Current and prospective EV owners worry about battery life and range. This is the least of their worries. Until EV manufacturers can make maintenance and repair costs reasonable, these vehicles exact a huge toll on the planet if they end up sc***ped because the parts are not durable or easy to replace. The EV dream has become a nightmare.
