Problem overview

Some Nissan LEAF owners report experiencing 12-volt battery depletion issues due to several factors, including poor battery quality in certain regions that may lead to premature failure. Reports indicate that some users have encountered battery failures linked to corroded lead contacts on both the positive and negative terminals. Additionally, severe battery degradation has been noted as a common issue in some Nissan LEAF models, potentially exacerbating battery problems over time. There are also instances where newly replaced 12-volt batteries drain quickly, suggesting underlying issues that require attention. Furthermore, owners may face complications related to BCM (Body Control Module) replacements, where software problems could contribute to battery depletion, depending on the vehicle's market area. Addressing these concerns is crucial for effectively diagnosing and resolving battery depletion issues in the Nissan LEAF.
