Common EV & Hybrid Vehicle Issues
While electric and hybrid vehicles require less maintenance than traditional gasoline-powered cars, they still face unique challenges:
Battery Degradation: Over time, all lithium-ion batteries experience some level of capacity loss, leading to reduced range. Proper maintenance and battery management can extend battery life.
Brake Wear & Regenerative Braking Issues: While regenerative braking reduces wear, components like brake pads and rotors still need attention to ensure proper function and safety.
Inverter & Power Electronics Failures: EVs and hybrids rely on power inverters to convert electricity for use by the motor. Malfunctions can cause performance issues and require specialized repair.
Cooling System Failures: If the battery cooling system fails, it can lead to overheating and reduced efficiency, potentially shortening the lifespan of the battery.
Charging Port & Cable Problems: Faulty charging ports, worn-out cables, or incompatibility with certain chargers can prevent effective charging.
Software & Electrical System Malfunctions: As EVs and hybrids rely heavily on software, bugs and failures can cause operational issues, requiring expert diagnostics and updates.
