Any big issues aside from the whole 12v battery dying thing?

[–] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

We haven't had that issue yet. We couldn't charge the car at home because the port on the car got too hot. The fix was software the slowed down the charge which works for us because my wife doesn't drive far but it still sucks.

My biggest complaint is no rear wiper, the rear glass gets so dirty so fast and we don't go to gas stations with it to clean it. Next year's model will have one. Otherwise it's really nice in traffic, far easier than my manual car is.

I haven’t encountered that and they have a recall out for it so you can go get it fixed for free at your service center.
