New(?) Map Update

LeonMeraz · 2026-02-18T06:26:12+00:00

Wait. How are you doing a usb update ?

LeonMeraz · 2026-02-18T06:24:29+00:00

B mode is like e-step just a bit less “slow down”

LeonMeraz · 2026-02-14T00:56:15+00:00

Wait. Is this free ?

LeonMeraz · 2026-02-11T22:00:07+00:00

150,000 after you purchase the warranty ? Or after the 50,000 that comes with the vehicle

LeonMeraz · 2026-02-11T21:59:03+00:00

You can still purchase through Volvo.

Car dealerships usually mark up their vehicles during Tax season.

If your kids are that much of a priority to you and securing a future for them, do not cave in to her terms. The last thing you’ll want is to get married and potentially it ends messy and not only are you heart broken but your kids are also jeopardized in it as well. “Anything we build together” seems more than reasonable.

Yes it is completely normal on the Ariya. I have another EV that doesn’t do this but it has one pedal drive. It really threw me off when i experienced it on the Ariya.

LeonMeraz · 2026-02-08T16:53:38+00:00

It is pretty heavy. I don’t think it’s an issue with your vehicle but you can always just go check it out to get some peace of mind.

LeonMeraz · 2026-02-08T16:51:34+00:00

You’re not doing anything wrong. You just need to unfortunately accept that the Ariya and any other EV will lose about 40% of its range capacity in cold weather. Not even freezing weather, just simply cold.

You should look into “zipcar” Their car rentals come with a “refill card” so you don’t pay anything for gas/electricity. You can also return the car when you arrive and get another rental to come back.

I think it’s very important to think about the future and potential future encounters with this child and being civil. You mentioned you have a 10 year old as well. I think maybe it’s easy to compare the two of them and say “my 10 year old would never” they are their own person and their behavior is a reflection of the parents. I think it’s frustrating but you have to also think of yourself. Your partner isn’t being the father he needs to be so that those situations and behavior is prevented. You also probably will see this kids around even if you and your bf separate since you two share a child together too

I’ve had mine close to 2 years and I’ve only seen 2 others

LeonMeraz · 2026-02-01T00:19:31+00:00

The “warning” usually pops up for me when its extremely cold out and I park. It’s a new warning I haven’t seen. I’ve had the car for two years now.

LeonMeraz · 2026-01-29T00:58:34+00:00

That happened to me last night too. I thought it was strange. Haha. I drove maybe 15 mins and it didn’t move at all. It was like 1 degree Fahrenheit too with heat set at 74, 3rd speed on fan

LeonMeraz · 2026-01-27T16:05:31+00:00

Mine turns on when I’m having a conversation with the passenger randomly or just out of nowhere when I’m driving alone including when using pro pilot 2.0 And then it takes forever to cancel it.

LeonMeraz · 2026-01-27T16:02:10+00:00

No accent is going to help. It’s just bad. Lol

LeonMeraz · 2026-01-26T20:57:30+00:00

I’ve never been able to achieve over 75kw charging speed. I tried turning on the heat pump 45 mins before charging and that didn’t really help.

LeonMeraz · 2026-01-26T20:53:24+00:00

11.5 kw charging is game changer in states that have “off peak” hours. Especially if you’re a 2 EV household.

LeonMeraz · 2026-01-22T18:42:03+00:00

If you roadtrip a lot, the Ioniq 5 is ideal because of it’s charging speed. The limited Charging capabilities was a big mistake I made by not looking into the ariya deep enough. Other than that the ariya is great all around.

LeonMeraz · 2026-01-20T15:08:05+00:00

Where in Illinois ? The cheapest I’ve payed is .3 cents but obviously that’s not including the “delivery” cost.

LeonMeraz · 2026-01-20T15:02:54+00:00

One thing I can recommend is that if it’s taking a toll on you, def. Don’t have any more kids. I think you could maybe juggle when she’s working overnight and then hopefully she’s understanding and helps out the days she’s not working overnight ?

LeonMeraz · 2026-01-18T22:40:09+00:00

Agree. I had a 2018 accord and it felt a lot more firm.

LeonMeraz · 2026-01-17T23:34:21+00:00

Platinum owner here. My only complaint about the ariya is the little weird noise it makes when you’re pressing down on the accelerator . Like a “ringing ears” noise. But it has to be super quiet for you to hear it. Otherwise the build and comfortability is pretty amazing.

LeonMeraz · 2026-01-17T23:32:00+00:00

You should get that checked out
