    What is a good Trash Bag?

    Sounds silly perhaps, but we cannot figure out what to do with typical road trash. In both of our Dodge Caravans have, we have used standard single-use plastic bags for trash and they work great, but I can't figure out how to fit one into Nola (the White Rhino...) Any ideas appreciated.

    Tailgate does not lock with the rest of the doors.

    Our tailgate, since day One, does not lock with the rest of the car. Eventually (about five minutes, I think) it decides to latch, but NOTHING I can do will lock it right now. Any ideas? I can't imagine the dealership will actually be able to DO anything...

    Fan noise when charging - normal?

    Yesterday I went to get my 2016 EV+ while it was charging from our Level 2 EVSE. There was a fairly loud fan-like, rushing sound coming from under the hood, like a blower or fan running. Outside temp around 65F, and I have never noticed this before. Normal, issue or who konws? Thanks.

    Strange charging issues

    A few days ago, my wife plugged in the Level 2 charger (with timer set for off-peak hours.) When I got in the car at 3PM, the display told me I was at 61% (after 15 hrs) and needed another 12:20 to complete. The heat was on (I have it set to go on at 3:40 when I leave at 3:45, but it was earlier...

    Disconnecting the L2 Charger

    We got a Clipper Creek charger, and it works great. But my question is this: in the manual, it implies you can disconnect the cable just by clicking and pulling. That does NOT happen, both of us have tried multiple times, the cable will NOT disconnect until we do something, and I am not sure...

    Fast Heat while sitting still.

    I want to be able to take Nola (our White Rhino...) to my piano gig. This requires that I can heat the vehicle QUICKLY on break - I have tried cranking the knob to 93 but it still takes most of the break to warm up. I get cold VERY easily and if my hands are cold, the music suffers. How do I...

    Chime on Door Lock will not shut up

    The Checkbox to turn off the door lock sound seems to do nothing. Only a minor point, but still frustrating. I would prefer to not advertise that I am unlocking my car. Ideas?

    Voice Commands Needed...

    Unless I just can't find them, there are several Voice Commands that I would have thought to be obvious (they are on my Garmin GPS, FWIW.) Volume up-down or percent, or volume mute - may assume not needed, it's on the wheel. But sometimes it is safer to talk and keep your thumbs where they are...

    First longer drive, no juice, no credit card - but success!!

    My wife just took our brand-new Clear White Plus - named Nola, for the white rhino - for its first long drive, and forgot to factor in night-time (so the headlights ran the battery down more than she figured, and of course during the day she had the radio on...) To make it harder, she had lost...

    Two questions about the GPS/NAV functio

    First and most important: how set Home on the unit? I have read the Multimedia book chapters three times and never saw the word. And second - is there a way to enter an offset to the location? I live at #4, but the GPS calls it #9.Our older GPS units had this issue but neither of our current...

    Does the Map Update include Charging Station locations?

    We get our car today, but the map update is from last year, they want to charge ME $356 for a brand new car. This seems VERY wrong to me, I am ready to just bail and wait till the cars include current info. But if the charging stations are not displayed, it doesn't matter.

    How to run through a Car Wash?

    My understanding is that we should not allow the car to be towed, which is what the automated car wash does. Is is slow enough that it can be considered safe? I assume I should remove the rear antenna as well, but are there issues with regular car wash places? 2016 Clear White Plus, just put...
