cool!

What if the truck doesn't come with free supercharging? Supercharging should be made free until service date.
(Not my battle, no PCS issue and have free supercharging). Just saying .

Right, that's what it says they will do.
If AC charging breaks, you get free Supercharging until PCS is replaced.

Wow I didn’t know this was a widespread issue . I just had this happen to me last week. I woke up unplugged my truck and it said ac charging unavailable .

I just read that part. My bad. It will still inconvenience a lot of ppl, especially those who don't live near a supercharger. I hope parts availability improves.

Cool, now can they special warranty this thing?

I’m sitting here hoping mine dies before my general warranty expires

So many trucks...
So many threads...

You might be able to restore limited charging if you unplug, set it to lower power mode, and let it go to sleep for a while. It will do a new health check when it wakes. Low probability of it working, but minimal effort to try.

Oh for sure it's still a big hassle, but at least there is an option to charge. This would also allow 3rd party DC charging, but without the free part.

I think I got lucky that morning it happened I put in a service ticket and I called service center. The service center said I should be able to supercharge. So I tried and had no luck.

I drove straight to the service center and said I need a loaner or I’m out transportation.
They gave me a loaner on the spot and took my truck.

THE BONUS: my loaner is a CyberBeast and OMG the launch is absolutely insane

You shouldn’t even be able to experience a full launch because they speed limit them at 80 or 85. You’re only getting a taste.

I know!!!! The 85 comes so fast I hate that there is a limiter in the loaner. Still fun even if I can’t fully grasp the full potential. 0-60 will amp ya up though
