No sooner did I get the update notification followed by an unexpected charging error notification. Tried 3 different Level 2 and 3 chargers - all make the car say "charging error". Blue SOC lights at charge port are all orange.

Does the car start and drive? If so then I would shut it down and wait a a bit and retry.

If possible, turn it fully on and let it sit for a minute or two. Then turn it off and exit the car. Let it sit for 10 minutes. Come back, turn it on and off again, but after you turn it off, try and plug it in. Sometimes the updates wonk stuff up right after they're done.

Yes. Thank you. An hour later it charges, but now I’ve got a four wheel drive/powertrain malfunction and all 3 drive modes are Engage.

Agree.

For me, this update inhibited use of audio temporarily. Got home and parked the car. Next time I started it (later in the evening IIRC) all was OK
