Comments
I believe the range has dropped significantly compared to the first 6 months of use. The battery report I got Nissan service was not informative at all. I also believe it wasn't accurate. They don't explain how they measure it. They don't provide an accurate current charge capacity relative to battery rating or when the car was built. I think Nissan is too afraid that people may start claiming the battery warranty issues and they may need to pay up.
