I vaguely remember something about that, but can't recall the details.
For my money, I'd at least like a geo-fenced "stay unlocked" that I could use at home, in my locked garage. I'm in and out of the car often, and the locked charge port thing drives me nuts. I don't need the mirrors to unfold, the HVAC to come on, the music to play... .just so I can grab my hat out of the back seat. All these super-automatic things that happen when I open the door that I don't want to happen.... yet the thing I *do* want to automatically happen, stays locked tight.
I'm with you. I'd rather have the port NEVER lock, then deal with this twice per day. My daily situation involves charging only in my garage. Port locking totally not needed.
