Thanks for the info local guys. I've been in touch with the parking authorities at UMD since they have peculiar rules about who can park where and when. Looks like I'll be at the regent's garage for a while before I try to drive down the Dulles and then Mt Vernon.

I don't know why my response didn't post, but the 100% and let it sit was per the local ranger. He wanted it to sit for at least 24 hours after hitting 100% which is contrary to general forum advice to hit 100% and drive off immediately. They haven't been able to figure it out. They are...

An updates on this? I'll be parked at UMD for a week, and doing some driving around the Washington area.... it'll be nice to have access to this.

This will seem odd, but there may be something out of whack in the BMS. Per the local ranger, I charged my car to 100% over the weekend, and allowed it to sit for more than 24 hours. I drove it to work today, it was 48 degrees, internal cabin temperature 69 degrees. There was a slight...

That day the temperature fluctuated from 65 to 72 degrees. No wind. All very short drives. Traveled a total of 34 miles. Started at 213. Ended at 120.

I have the old CPO warranty. 4/50, unlimited on the battery for 8 years.

213 was 90% this morning. Drove a total of 2x5 miles, 2x7 miles and 1x10 miles yesterday. All under 45 mph. Somehow the car ended up at 120 miles of range starting from 215. I'll charge it to 100% tonight and drive off. And before anyone asks about if the battery is warm, I usually start my...

My commute is mostly highway. When my car was operating correctly it was in the 330 kwh range - mind you that was last fall. This winter it got up into the 400s. Prior to the failure.

The battery was the "second" one that was sent from California. The first one was damaged by the carrier and was unusable according to Cleveland. The driver who returned my car pointed out the refurbished sticker on the side of the battery pack. My car is charged in an insulated garage. It...

All - You may have seen my post where I had indicated my battery was being replaced by Tesla. They didn't indicate what they found out - however my symptoms were reduced power regardless of how charged the battery was, or how long the car had been driven. Also it would seem that I was only...

Got my car back this morning..... and now it's going back tomorrow. Somehow the rear suspension has failed. There is a remanufactured sticker on the battery. Unfortunately 100% is now 240. And it pulls to the left whenever I accelerate. Joy!

Don't forget about the McDonald's within walking distance if that floats your boat.

Well it's coming back soon. Somehow they found a battery that matches pretty much exactly the 90% of the battery I sent it in with. Meaning the battery ASY, HV BATT, S3,BB, REMAN,MDLS (108815-01-B) has a 90% of 220, just like what I sent in. Extrapolating out that will be the same 244 100% I...

This is why I question if they do it in batches. You may have been lucky and had your battery go out at the end of the refurbishment cycle. The service center has completed my "maintenance" requests, but the battery replacement hasn't happened yet. That being said I've watched the battery...

I wonder if they "refurbish" these batteries in batches. I've been waiting for a new battery since March 8th.
