    My options if I lose a 3rd capacity bar this year

    I should say that I have had 3 battery checks in 13 months of ownership..I made a complaint to both the car saleman and the Leaf service dept..Service Dept said they would do another battery check and found nothing wrong with the pack.. I also told him about others losing battery capacity bars...

    Suggestions on how to maintain battery life in hot weather

    No, hypermiling or putting the car in neutral while driving down hill will not help..I avg 6.0 M/KWH and still lost 2 bars..Keep the battery-pack as cool as posiible doing the summer,110 degree heat will kill it....
