NISSAN 2015 LEAF - Service & Maintenance Guide - Manual (Page 9)

If you have an accident, insist on Genuine Nissan Collision
Parts. If you want your electric vehicle to be restored using
parts made to Nissan’s original exacting specifications – if
you want it to last, help to protect your personal safety and
to help hold its resale value, the solution is simple. Tell your
insurance agent and your repair shop to use only Genuine
Nissan Collision Parts.
Many non-genuine parts are copies made from impres-
sions of Nissan parts and may not match the specifica-
tions and performance standards of Genuine Nissan
Parts. As a result, non-genuine parts may not look or fit
right, and may be less safe.
The hood on your electric vehicle is a good example.
Nissan designed it with hood buckling creases to help
prevent the hood from penetrating the interior of your
electric vehicle in an accident. Non-genuine parts may not
provide such built-in safeguards.
In some states, the law says you must be advised if
non-genuine parts are used to repair your electric vehicle.
Why should you take a chance?
Replacement Panel Limited Lifetime
Corrosion Warranty*
If you have your collision damage repaired using Genuine
Nissan Outer Sheet Metal Panels you don’t have to worry
about corrosion. That’s because these panels are war-
ranted against inside out rust-through perforation for as
long as you own your Nissan. Another reason to insist on
Genuine Nissan Collision Repair Parts.
Vehicle Lease agreements, such as those offered by Nissan Motor Ac-
ceptance Corporation, may require that ONLY Genuine Nissan replace-
ment parts be utilized for collision repairs to the vehicle.
