Description of the problem	I purchased my 2011 nissan leaf in september of 2012 from stadium nissan in orange, california. I quickly learned that this vehicle was not built for my 69 mile commute(4. 9 miles per kwh), but was able to adapt and make it work until a job change in october of 2013. My 10 year old son and i were rear ended shortly after our move to turlock, california. My nissan leaf held up very well to being rear ended at 45mph by a full sized chevy silverado; as i drove it away and the chevy was totaled. My son and i both received concussions from the accident, and unfortunately he is still faced with memory loss. My leaf was taken to alfred matthews collision center for repairs, and sent to central valley nissan to have the batteries removed and reinstalled before and after the body repairs. The repairs took more than 2 months to complete, and my leaf has never been the same. My leaf will no longer get the 69plus freeway miles that i drove before the accident, and will now only get 40-50 city miles per charge (3. 8 miles per kwh). I have taken my leaf back to central valley nissan at least 6 times in the last 8 months, and even had one of the two nissan leaf mechanics evaluate the issues. Aaa was willing and ready to total my leaf based on this drastic performance issue, but they were told by central valley nissan and the leaf mechanic that my leaf is performing within specifications for a 2011 leaf with 35,000 miles. I find this hard to believe based on your epa estimates of 106 city / 92 highway (i am curious if other leaf owners know that when their vehicle is 3 years old and has 35,000 miles; they will only get 40 miles per charge).
