kes left because she became telekinetic except that she couldn't control it and became unstable, she was destroying the ship, she got in a shuttlecraft and she used her power to send voyager a massive distance knocking years off their journey, a pissed off future version of herself comes back in another later episode though

Answer 2

Jennifer Lien was asked to leave Star Treck: Voyager, so they could make room for Seven Of Nine. Originally, it was Harry Kim (Garreth Wang) Who was going to leave, but after he was listed in Top 50 Actors Of The World, they decided to ask Jennifer to leave so they could afford to pay, and have more screen time for seven.

In A Vision of the Future - Star Trek: Voyager, Stephen Edward Poe states that in 1997, when producers were ironing out the details of the introduction of Seven of Nine, they had already lined up Garrett Wang (Harry Kim) to take the bullet and leave in order to free up enough budget for a new main actor. Then that year, Wang was chosen by People Magazine as one of the "50 Most Beautiful People in the World". Suddenly Wang was in, and Lien was out.

In an article appearing in Star Trek: Communicator issue 134, Lien recalled, "I was on for a few seasons, then they asked me to leave. They decided not to renew my contract. I didn't ask why I was not being renewed, I just said 'okay' and moved on."

The episode "The Gift" in season three. She comes back as a guest star in the episode, "Fury". I think that's the last time she was on Voyager.
