Mine was all software. Remote park assist stopped working and they could never get everything to work right after that.

A thought on the "unusable GPS."

That screen shot of the seemingly unneeded charge stop has me wondering: what is your minimum charge at destination set to?

If that's unreasonably high, it's going to do really dumb things to try and meet your request.

I run mine at 5% and used to run it at 20% but I gained confidence.

As regards the unlocking, are you sure you don’t have comfort access selected? I found that too sensitive and deselected it. It would unlock the car anytime I got remotely near it.

I agree with your Minimum Charge comment. I originally had mine as 20% ( Range Fear), and it produced all crazy routes and times. Switched it to 8% a couple of weeks ago and Bingo, no issues any more. Sounds like many items are software related and when I get some sort of Glitch, I reboot the PCM and Voila. Back in Business.

bingo - @DerekS - 8% is the magic number for me personally - very reasonable suggestions but have to make sure you're landing at 5-8% via in route monitoring of the destination SOC estimate.

but 8% worked great for me on my last ~2,500 mile road trip (13 fast charging stops 7-8 days)

I know this is an old thread ... But a lot of victim shaming going on here. Dramatic or not, the car seems to have issues.

If it were me, I wouldn't "just sell it" -- first, I'd be selling something truly bad to an unsuspecting buyer, second why should I take the loss? Does not sound right, and I'm the type of person who can't stand a perceived injustice. (as you can see from my responding to this thread to begin with)

I would lemon this shit. I lemoned a 350z before. It's not hard. You've already spent a month in the shop - that's probably enough to lemon it.
