Leaf Height Control Suspension Issue

My 2010 Nissan Leaf (all-electric) has 225399 km on it. The height control seems restricted. There's a warning light, the low beams adjust poorly, and the car sits unevenly. Plus, there's an error logged and the ride is bumpier. I suspect an air suspension or leveling sensor issue. Anyone seen this?

Whoa, that sounds like a mess. I had something similar happen with my old Audi A6. The symptoms were almost identical! Is it possible that it is a suspension issue? Has anything happened with the car recently?

An Audi, huh? Interesting. What ended up being the culprit for you? And no, nothing unusual that I can remember. Normal driving for the most part.

It turned out to be a defective leveling sensor control rod! The car tried to compensate all the time. It should be checked by a workshop, could be the same problem. It's not going to fix itself.

Thanks for the insight! I'll get it checked out ASAP. The workshop confirmed your suspicion; the control rod on the sensor was indeed defective. Repair ended up costing me around 110€ but all is working now! Appreciate the help!
