I’ve never had an issue that couldn’t be resolved for a temporary fix as Newell has installed so many redundancies.
I had an issue last week and was able to FaceTime a Newell tech and showed me exactly what to do to diagnose and send me the part out next day.
When I bought my 2011 I took it to Newell for a pm and left with full confidence of everything working.
Oh, the 50 days is just small part of our nightmare. In the first 300 miles we hit a rough patch of road and the dash module panel fell off onto the steering column and went black, I lost some power to the steering and all steering pod buttons went dead. I've done so many full chassis power resets to restore lost driving feature/functions I've lost count. I've had to reset the inverter dozens, yes dozens, of times to get the batteries to charge or get power to just pass through. Driving on wet roads causes the CMS and ACC to fail and the dash HVAC controls to go haywire.
The only silver lining here is that I've learned much about all the systems as they all seemed to have failed in some way and I had reset or find a work around...so I got that going for me!
