Not sure what is going on with my 4xe. Ever since getting it back from the dealer for the failed battery coolant pumps it just isn't the same.
Two tests today show that I can only go 14.5 miles at 60 mph on a full battery charge in Electric Mode, during which I keep getting "Electric Mode Temporarily Unavailable" and it kicks on the ICE and defaults to Hybrid Mode for a couple minutes. Eventually I am able to select Electric Mode again, but only for a few more miles then kicks back to Hybrid Mode with the error message again. I think the battery system is getting too hot. I also found that my regenerative braking completely failed to perform any braking for me in the middle of the test drive when I needed to stop and turn around at the end of the road.
Full details here if interested:
Took it into the dealer and they found the stored code of “incorrect gear ratio” not sure what’s with that but will keep an eye on it next time I’m out on the trails. Did you encounter a loss of power prior to it cutting out of electric mode? And did it cut out as you attempted to give it more...
