Why if I have my Charge level at 90% my car automatically charges to 100%? I have it set on preferred charge times and at 90% but it surpasses it....I have to manually watch it so it doesnt go past 90%. I was told by random people that it should only be charged to 90% not 100% unless on long trips. I drive 75 miles one way to work....is that considered a long trip? thx you

Make sure that the charge settings for your location are set to "Use preferred charge settings" and not "Charge when plugged in." When I first set things up I failed to toggle the setting and couldn't figure out why my settings weren't working.
