In my new i3 I don't get any info on charging stations. According to the guys who were walking me through the car as I was about to drive it off the lot, no one could seem to understand why, like it was a problem. The BMW genius showed up at my doorstep (that's cool) to go over the car again and see if there were any issues and I again stated that there is no charging station status showing up, although it does show all the other things like Park n' Rides, airports, etc. He pointed out that the little circle in the display had a line through it so it was not connecting with the mothership. Another week later no one seems to have a clue why, and the dealer here says they've never seen that before (DOH!). So, I have an appointment wednesday to have them hold my car hostage to try and find out why. Luckily I get another i3 for a loaner. Can you say rental car burnoff?
Not a big deal as I don't drive that much so plugging in to my garage when I get back has been fine. And, the plugshare app is way cool, if I should ever need it.
Otherwise my i3 has been killer. I will never buy a pure ICE car ever again. I will have to say for all the killer nice cars I've ever owned, I get more head turns with this car than any other. :shock: Except for the i3 the BMW genius showed up in, I have yet to see another one in Portland. Which is cool, I like having a unique car.
