Yesterday I got my XC40 Recharge back after the infotainment resetting glitch, and after bringing it in three times they finally replaced the infotainment unit and it seems to be working now. It hasn't reset since I got it back at least, so that's encouraging. I'll give it a week without it resetting to declare it a victory though.
Now on the downside, since I got my car back, it has not charged. Currently I just do the very slow charge in my garage while I wait for the ChargePoint that is backordered. It usually isn't a big deal because my commute to work and back isn't that far and I can charge it in the evening and over night to keep it charged. But last night I charged my car, and this morning when I went to drive it, it didn't show any change. I thought nothing of it and just figured I could charge it when I got home and it'd be okay. Well, now it still does not appear to be charging at all, in fact it appears like it has actually gone down in charge over the last few hours while it's supposed to be charging. I have no idea why.
I actually tried to take it to an EVgo fast charging station to see if that would help, but the stupid machine wouldn't recognize my account and kept saying it did not exist. So I wasted 10 precious miles of charge and a half-hour of my time trying to get it to work for nothing.
I should mention it's also extremely hot here. I live in St. Louis and right now the heat index is 107. Maybe that's affecting it? I'm not sure. But anyone ever had any experiences like this where it won't charge? I'm a bit scared now that I'm going to run out of battery and get stranded or not be able to get it out of my garage.
