Volkswagen Updates ID.4 Charging Limits
Volkswagen has updated the charging limits for its ID.4 electric crossover vehicles, advising owners to charge their batteries no higher than 80%. The update is designed to address concerns about potential overheating of the high-voltage battery, which could lead to battery issues. Volkswagen has not yet determined the root cause of the problem, but recommends charging the battery at or below 80% to prevent potential issues. The update includes a software update to temporarily limit the maximum charging level. This follows a previous recall of 22,524 ID.4 vehicles due to battery-related risks, which was announced in October 2022. The update aims to streamline the process for affected owners and prevent further battery-related issues.
