Our Nissan Leaf experiences dangerous behavior while driving on the freeway. After approximately 23 miles of driving, the car suddenly displays a slippery road sign (The day is dry, no rain) and significantly reduces speed on its own. Attempting to accelerate has no effect. To ensure safety, we activate the hazard lights and pull the car to the side. Only after turning off the car and restarting it does the issue resolve temporarily. This situation poses an extreme risk, as any nearby vehicle could collide with ours during this sudden slowdown. Safety Concerns: Given the severity of this issue, we are genuinely frightened to drive the car daily. Unfortunately, we have limited alternatives for commuting to work. Our safety and the safety of others on the road are at stake. Our Nissan Leaf experiences dangerous behavior while driving on the freeway.

This issue started in early 23 but it was not very often so we thought this might be a glitch and did not happen for few months. but then it started happening once or twice a month. since January 2024 it started happening more often and now it is happening almost every day.

As soon as I left with a 80% from Kendall by the time I got to my destination (Plantation 30miles) I had 20%. On 1/1/2024 I left the plantation at around 6:30pm. I Charged the vehicle to 100%. After 35min of driving at 70 miles per hour I noticed that I only had 20% charge (30miles). I stopped and charged for 3hrs, because I needed an application to charge, and only 1 charging machine was working. I was able to charge 99%. I drove another 30miles and noticed that I only had 40miles left to continue driving, I had to stop again. 1hr after driving I started getting messages the vehicle was overheated, and to slow down. I started driving 60miles per hour in the turn pike. I stopped every 30min because the vehicle was overheating, and it was discharging. Issues with the Vehicle: 1) once you drive over 65 mph for 30 minutes the car starts overheating, you have to stop at that point. 2) The GPS is not able to provide you with an accurate list of places to charge. 3) The vehicle discharges fast. 4) I was informed that the vehicle has an additional part that is not part of the vehicle that could be affecting the battery (OBD2) and that the original warrantee will not pay. anything because of that. 5) it shows that you have 100% battery or 105 miles but it’s not accurate. A trip that would take me 4hrs and 30min took me 17hrs. When I arrived at Citrus County, I was only 21%, I knew I was not going to be able to make to my house. I started calling the insurance who were able to assist me with the Vin number. I drove the car to a location where I could charge the car for couple hours to only get 26%. I called Nissan Jenkins of Homosassa 937 S. Suncoast Blvd Homosassa Fl 34448, spoke with Benjamin L. I arrived at Nissan at 11:30am. I took the vehicle straight to Jenkins Nissan in Homosassa, where I arrived with only 10% of charge. PLEASE NOTE THAT I CAN NOT UPLOAD THE PICTURES AND THE SUMMARY.

I was driving on the highway when the car in front of me applied their breaks - I took my foot off of the accelerator but the car did not slow down. I applied the breaks but they did not work - in fact, the car seemed to accelerate. I heard the collision alarm sound but the automatic emergency braking system did not engage or stop the car, so I crashed into the car in front of me. Air bag deployed and then the car filled with smoke from the batteries but I couldn't get out as the power locks didn't work or allow me to open the door. The EMT's had to break the rear window to get me out of the car

An incident happened today where my leaf would barely accelerate. I had stopped at a traffic light, when the light changed attempted to accelerate away. The car would hardly accelerate and would not go faster than 8 mph. Was able to limp it into a parking lot where I pumped the accelerator several time and it began to run normally.
