Inconsistent Regen Braking in same mode

Two things can affect the amount of regen other than the mode and your pedal position:
- it decreases when you turn the steering wheel to go around a curve or corner
- it decreases (sometimes essentially turns off) if you hit a big enough bump

And, if you're battery is essentially at 100%, it actually appears to use the brakes instead.

Seeing you're in Chicago, extreme HV battery temperature might also be a factor in regen. amount.

I've got a service appointment set up for this, but I wanted to throw it out to the general crowd.

I've been having inconsistent results with the regen braking on my i3 REx and am wondering if anyone else has been having these issues. I thought I saw a post on it, but wasn't able to find it.

Sometimes when I lift fully off the accelerator, the regen braking feels only about 1/2 or less as strong as it should. Usually a quick tap back on the accelerator brings it to it's senses but it obviously shouldn't be doing this. I'm generally driving in Eco Pro + but have noticed this issue in all modes.

Has anyone else had this issue?

Thanks.
