What's wrong: Nissan north america, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2018-2023 Leaf vehicles. The vehicle may accelerate unintentionally if the driving mode is changed ("d" to "b"; e-pedal "on"; or "eco" mode) after disengaging the cruise control.

Why it matters: Unintentional acceleration can increase the risk of a crash.

The fix: Dealers will reprogram the vehicle control module (vcm), free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed August 30, 2023.
