Hi, need advice with an on-going issue with my 2013 Leaf , (three months old)
The main problem is that during the last three months it powers down like if was out of power and give the message "motor power is limited" , it has happened at least 15 times, many times in the most in in-opportune moments (rush hour traffic). (Three times Thursday and twice Friday)
As i try to pull over sometimes it will cycle back to full power again but with out the regen function and with the brakes acting funny, like i have to press harder, when i press the brakes the green lights don't light up, like they would normally do.
I have never had less than 41 mile range and always drive in eco mode.
Screen shot right after i pull over and before i power down

Most often I have to pull over , power down the car, and than start the car again. When i do that, none of the regen works and car dosnt drive like a Leaf (hard to explain)
I have taken it in to the dealer for 3 times.
Had problems with "not taking a charge" they kept car for 7 days, could not figure out what was wrong.

I dropped off the car this saturday, for the ongoing lost of power issue, they were suppose to take it on extended test drive but so far on the three visits they havnt been able to replicate the problem.

Pretty much frustrated, to the point where i make a effort to stay in right lane all the time in case it happens and have trained my self to hit the hazard lights.
Any advice?
