Re: Battery Recall for cars with E400 high-voltage battery.

Nice to see all the Soul-EV current info here.
I too got a "Prelim Recall" letter on 5-June for my 2015 EV.
Will wait and see what's next.

Re: Charging Fault error.

Thanks for the useful reply. I'll be on the lookout for a OBC failure. I do have a service appt. soon for a key-fob-aware problem with Kia-Cerritos (Calif) who should be savvy on these EVs.

Re: Charging Fault error.

I have a 2015 Soul-EV (US) , new in Feb. '15 (now 24K miles) and all OK until now. Have always used the Reserved (Scheduled) Charging function (set for 12:30 AM start) with my L2 EVSE in my garage.

Notfred,

Set Immediate charging to 80%

I want "Immediate Charging to 80 %" but don't know how to set it. The only "Immediate Charging" setting for my 2015 EV results in 100% charge.
Would appreciate any help.

Re: KEY FOB "LOW BATTERY WARNING"

Thanks for your input. This happens with car in my garage and also at other locations around the city. Also happens with both key fobs, both with new batteries. My guess is that the problem is in the car, with the installed sensing system losing sensing range.

KEY FOB "LOW BATTERY WARNING"

My '15 Soul-EV started displaying "Key Fob Low Battery" when turning the Power ON. Both of my fobs have new batteries and both cause the same warning message, but not every time. When I hold the key fob very close, or with fob touching the button, the Power turns on and the warning message...

Re: Kia Access app and UVO Link

Having some spare time at a KIA dealer waiting for my EPB recall update, I connected with a KIA advisor on the subject. She says that my '15 Soul EV Access UVO uses a 3G modem, AND I got my 5-year-free service.. But now, "KIA Access now uses 4G Modems so hardware is incompatible". Maybe, b...
