Consumer Description
The vehicle is subject to an open safety recall related to the high-voltage battery. According to the recall notice, owners are instructed not to use Level 3 DC fast charging due to the risk of rapid battery heating and potential fire. At this time, there is no remedy available, and no estimated timeline has been provided. Because of this, the dealer is unable to perform any repair. The charging restriction significantly limits normal vehicle use, especially for longer trips that rely on DC fast charging. This condition creates an ongoing safety concern, as the vehicle contains a known battery-related defect with no available corrective action. The issue has been acknowledged by the manufacturer through an official safety recall, but the lack of a remedy leaves the risk unresolved.
