Consumer Description
Hello NHTSA, I hope this message finds you well. I would like to provide specific details regarding the issues with my car as per your guidelines: 1. **Failed Component or System:** The charging system has malfunctioned, leading to extreme range decrease, constant charging failures, inconsistent charging speeds, and signs of overheating. The charging system warning light is on. 2. **Availability for Inspection:** The malfunctioned charging system and associated components are available for inspection upon request. 3. **Safety Risk:** The safety of myself and others is at risk due to the potential for unexpected vehicle breakdowns, especially during charging, and the indication of overheating poses an additional safety concern. 4. **Confirmation by Service Center:** The problem has not yet been confirmed by a dealer or independent service center, but a service appointment has been scheduled to address and diagnose the issues. 5. **Inspections by Others:** The vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives, or other third parties at this point. 6. **Warning Lamps or Messages:** The charging system warning light is the primary symptom, appearing alongside extreme range decrease, charging failures, and inconsistent charging speeds. These issues manifested without prior warning. I appreciate your attention to these specific details and look forward to resolving these concerns promptly.
