The rear motors did start to warm up, but never even got past 175 degrees. I also never heard the motor cooling system until the fronts hit 300 degrees. Then you could really hear the cooling system go into high gear. Once all the pressure was off the system and we were on flatter terrain (only...

Great question, no, I was just watching the motor temps. Also where the display shows the motor temps there is also the center display that shows the powertrain and there where two exclamation marks over the inverters that were also lit up in red, but no text based warnings or “Turtle” mode...
