Kind of a surprise, mine's a 2024, just one year old. Just took it on it's first road trip to Savannah and back to James Island so it should have been all charged up. I haven't removed the battery cover yet but I think the 2024's have a glass mat?

I got the same messages, but today got another notification that said they were a mistake and the four messages were deleted automatically. So, just a glitch in the matrix.

Last night I figured it was a glitch when I got all four at the same time and they were all so unrelated. But it did have me worried.

well it kind of felt like what seems to happen when the 12V battery is low - a slew of codes and warnings, on the dash anyway. so it seemed at least possible that the 12V battery was having problems. when i checked it though the health seemed OK - 85% SOC and 13.5V under load with the inverter offline.

anyway i'm glad it was a false alarm.

Yes that is why it worried me, but given I have a 2025 I leased in The beginning of September that would have been re unexpected.
