Are you a current or recent car shopper who bought an EV and then installed solar – or who had solar already, making the decision to go electric easier?
OR
Are you a recent EV buyer (past 3 months) as a result of manufacturer incentives and dealer discounts on these vehicles, including year-end deals? Were you convinced to buy an EV after finding a good end-of-year deal, or due to uncertainty around which EVs will no longer qualify for full/partial EV tax credits in 2024? A national business reporter is interested in speaking with you. Please reach out to [email protected] by 12/15 if interested in sharing your story.

Battery current loss/starting problem. Recommendations
2015 Civic sedan won't hold full charge and battery has 12.35--12.42V. Has anyone found a fix for this problem? Honda dealer/AMH checks alternator output and battery voltage; finding both "good" but does not find problem cause or solution.

look at the car when it is parked in a pitch dark garage, is light shining from glovebox or is the subwoofer giving an occasional subwoof?
a test to disprove the above idea is to disconnect the battery while it is parked, or use an ammeter.
I have been unable to get Honda to give me the procedures to remove my battery and the procedures for charging and battery removal are not in the manual or the provided CD. Such information is to be withheld and not provided to owners. Interestingly, jump-starting procedures, which can be inherently risky, are provided.
