OK, so here's a scenario that I am curious about. It's January, -25 degrees, got some marginal gas. Go out to the car and attempt to start. Cranks for awhile then the computer gives up because the battery is too low, and throws a code. Ordinarily I would put the car into a heated garage to warm up, add a can of heet to the gas and top off the tank then "CHARGE THE BATTERY" because it ran down too low out in the cold. Ordinarily this procedure would work fine for a normal car. For this car, I see the only option being Tie a tow rope to the front, pull it down the road, while somebody pushes the brake pedal to cause regen-braking then pull it back into the warm building, and try to start it. I guess the other option would be to have it towed to a dealer, but I guess what would they do? I can hardly see this as a warranty issue. Anybody have any other ideas? I love this car, but I am wondering how its going to like Minnesota Winters.
