Updated this morning when I got home from work. Woke up @2pm and opened the truck to put sunshade in the windshield, it had ~38% battery post update. My fob still wouldn’t update, so I submitted a ticket for that and received a call maybe an hour later to take care of it as well as the passenger seatbelt recall. Washed the truck to use it tomorrow before dinner and noticed the radiator shutters were cycling randomly?
After dinner I went out to plug the truck in to charge overnight and it wouldn’t unlock with the app. Key cards and fob also wouldn’t get truck to respond. Called roadside who answered and understood the issue then would call me back with a solution.
According to them, the 12v batteries decided to take a dump. As is tradition, it is Saturday night and nothing is ‘probably’ going to happen tomorrow unless someone is in the RVA SC and is feeling tenacious. Hopefully I can get mobile service out Monday before work that night, but as it sits, this could be a lot worse if I was out in the middle of nowhere.
To their credit, I was offered a rental or ride share credits. I’m optimistic this can get resolved Monday. If not, I have a motorcycle that hasn’t been getting much use since I took delivery in September, but if I didn’t update I have a feeling this wouldn’t be happening.
Update: Went for the jumper cables next to the tow hitch. That lit the rear tail lights and unlocked ONLY the driver’s side doors and mirror. Not frunk or charge door. Since I can’t open the frunk I can’t jump “secondary” 12v batteries as shown in the owner’s manual.
App still won’t lock/unlock and shows 97F inside (which it was earlier today)
