LEAF Electric Car Has Restart Problem
Without saying how many complaints have come in, Nissan acknowledges that drivers in both Japan and the United States have reported the problem.
Nissan Americas in a statement on Monday, "We are actively investigating to determine the root cause and what action is necessary to address the issue."
Currently, there is no intention to require a recall since the problem is not affecting the safety of the vehicle.
"This is not a safety issue," said the company, "as the vehicle will not stop running while being driven but may not restart after being turned off."
According to Nissan, the defect may originate with a sensor in the air conditioning unit.
