2019 Nissan Leaf S Excellent 40kWh Battery Low Miles Non-Starting - $5,200 (San Diego)

For Sale: 2019 Nissan Leaf S – Excellent 40kWh Battery – Low Miles – Non-Starting – Project / Parts Color: Silver Mileage: 42,765 miles Battery: 40kWh pack, charges to ~141 miles, almost no measurable degradation after 6 years (still under Nissan battery warranty) Title: Clean --- Condition & History Vehicle was in excellent driving condition up until ~1 month ago. Car stopped starting; all other electrical systems remain functional. Dealer diagnosed failed PDM (Power Delivery Module), replaced it with new OEM ($4,000). After replacement, the issue persisted — dealer then claimed VCM (Vehicle Control Module) also failed. I suspect VCM is the sole issue and original PDM is still fine. Dealer’s misdiagnosis likely came from VCM failing to send proper commands to the PDM. Estimated VCM replacement at dealer: ~$1,400. --- Why Selling Already purchased a new vehicle, no longer interested in further troubleshooting. Minor cosmetic scratch from a low-speed parking lot incident (barely visible, did not repair). Decision influenced by poor dealer experience and time constraints. --- Highlights for Buyers Battery in outstanding health – realistically worth significant value alone.

Ideal for: Skilled EV mechanics Battery resellers Leaf parts specialists EV conversion projects --- Pricing Open to reasonable offers.
