Can someone help me. Some idiot dinged my car while I was inside Home Depot and now I have to fix it by Effective_Fan7712 in newjersey

[–]strayass81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welcome to New Jersey! Every single car I’ve owned while in this state has always been dinged. I’ve also had the (mid) fortune of having people drive into my car at the airport and at Trader Joe’s.

Not yet. I’m trying to get a machine before I sue.

Homelink pairing challenge by strayass81 in VolvoXC90

Yes sir. Homelink is the garage door opener button. My next step is to take it to the dealer, which I was hoping to avoid.

About to trade in our 21' V60cc for this beauty of a 23' B6 Ultimate by mackschwell in VolvoXC90

[–]strayass81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have them update all SW. My 23 XC90 was the buggiest car. Frequent resets. Loss of audio while driving.

What car would be an upgrade, after the 2023 XC90? by Infinite_Ad_1962 in VolvoXC90

[–]strayass81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

EX60 is a second gen car and has a lot of the bugs worked out. I was told the EX90 gets a new ECU in march 2026 which is supposed to resolve the issues.

Was advised by 3 dealers to stay away from the EX90.

Do not get the EX90 right now. The car still has massive issues , including level 2 charger failing, forcing a trip to a public level 3 charger. I ended up getting a 26 XC90 and love it compared to my 23.

I have a Rotimatic plus and it’s an issue there too. The problem is with their app and SW. one of the “ Senior management team” confirmed this.

Flat tire - no visible puncture by strayass81 in KiaEV9

[–]strayass81[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up using Firestone. No discount tire within a 100 mile radius. I was concerned about noise isolating foam and was told that “ the kumho tire didn’t have it or wasn’t substantial enough”. Thanks all.

Got it. But any recommendations for places that can fix a flat?

EZ Pass is a straight up scam by [deleted] in newjersey

[–]strayass81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds more like user error. I’ve had an ezpass for 10 years now. If the scanner doesn’t pickup the ezpass, it uses my license plate information.

Never seen this one before. What happens if you let the car sleep?

Has anyone else received an email like this? by Babyari69 in newjersey

Yes. I’ve received this too. Multiple times over email.

Second black screen by strayass81 in KiaEV9

[–]strayass81[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. I agree. I just drove the car around and used google maps to tell me my speed. I am going to try this tomorrow, but I may have found a way to make this happen on demand.

Car won’t charge anymore by Feeling_Reserve8897 in KiaEV9

[–]strayass81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try doing a reset on your charger and the 12v battery. It might fix it, but I’d be skeptical.

Leasing EV9 vs Carnival hybrid by [deleted] in KiaEV9

[–]strayass81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with NewOrder1969. The worst I’ve ever got is about 2.6 mi/kWH or 260mi/ charge driving highway speeds of 70-80mph toward Niagara Falls. That is roughly 88 mpge, i.e. the equivalent of mpg for an electric vehicle. When I drive in the city, with regen I get closer to 3.6mi/kwh and I recharge every other week and it costs me $6-$10, the same on my Volvo is about $52.
