Remote climate control totally unreliable – NissanConnect® EV & Services Review

After collecting our luggage after a 2.5 flight, I was pleased that I remembered to open this app and turn on the Climate Control so that our 2 year old and 4 year old kids, not to mention my wife and I, would have a heat respite waiting for us when the shuttle arrived at airport parking. Instead, we arrived to an oven. The outside air was registering on the dash as 104° and the interior was probably hotter. Melt-downs ensued as we stood outside the car waiting for it to cool down. Usually my wife drives this car and I drive a Tesla Model 3. If I had recalled how unreliable the remote climate control was on our 2016 Leaf, I would have gone to pickup the car myself. When will Nissan wake up and improve this app. The rating is terrible. Maybe we’ll replace the Leaf with another Model 3 at the end of the lease instead of exercising the option to buy. I had hoped maybe they would make some significant improvements over the course of our lease but that has unfortunately not been the case.
