Engine loss of power

Does anyone have any ideas, or has has a similar problem please.
Kona 1.0 premium nav, one year old, has now 4 times has suffered loss of power. Initially it triggered fault codes suggesting a turbo issue, but the last time no fault code generated. You can be driving along, go to accelerate and theres nothing there, has gone into a limp mode, so gets us home, but revs are restricted.
I feel its dangerous as does it without warning, normally as accelerating away, eg a roundabout or a junction. Oncce it happens it stays with no power, so very slow to drive. Then after being parked for a while if we restart it then it drives ok again.
Has been back to hyundia garage three times so far, had some software fix that hyundia technical advised them to do, but without an error code they seem unable to repair. The first time it was at garage, it did loose power as they tested it so they have seen the fault, but they can't make it do it again, so give us it back saying its fixed, and its not.
