    I was also told by someone that worked there that the whole problem with them was a software issue in the motor controller. The manufacturer of that controller would not work with them on a fix and management didn’t want to replace them.

    I tried to buy a few of them for virus components but they wouldn’t sell them to me saying they had to all be crushed.

      Gotta love the mindset “if I can’t have it, no one can!”

        They probably have VINs. Things get really weird and official once VINd

    All of this without a Maques Brownlee review, wonder if it’s to do with building an unrepairable EV…
