What is not covered

Nissan's lithium-ion battery exclusions, with one general exclusion and the salvage-title rule, the same in all three booklets except where a year is named:

  • Exposing the vehicle to ambient temperatures above 120F (49C) for over 24 hours.
  • Storing the vehicle in temperatures below -13F (-25C) for over seven days.
  • Leaving the vehicle for over 14 days where the lithium-ion battery reaches a zero or near zero state of charge.
  • Physically damaging the lithium-ion battery, or intentionally attempting to reduce its life.
  • Exposing the lithium-ion battery to a direct flame, or immersing any portion of it in water or fluids.
  • Opening the lithium-ion battery enclosure, or having it serviced by someone other than a Nissan Ariya certified technician (2023, 2024) or a Nissan Electric Vehicle certified technician (2025).
  • Neglecting to follow correct charging procedures, or using incompatible charging devices.
  • Consequential damage caused by the failure to repair an existing problem.
  • Repairs performed by anyone other than a Nissan Ariya certified dealer (2023, 2024) or a Nissan Electric Vehicle certified dealer (2025).
  • Any vehicle that is or ever has been issued a "salvage" or similar title, or that an insurance company has determined to be a "total loss"; the warranty does not apply to it and is void.

Gradual capacity loss with time and use is not covered beyond the terms and limits of the Lithium-Ion Battery Capacity Coverage.

Scope note

US market, model years 2023 through 2025, one Nissan-hosted warranty booklet per year; Nissan's owner manuals page lists Ariya booklets for those three years only. The 2023 and 2024 booklets name the Ariya in their dealer and technician wording; the 2025 booklet is Nissan's single electric-vehicle edition, names no model, and is the one Nissan links for the 2025 Ariya. The booklet delivered with a specific car is the authority for that car.
