New EV6 owner here, with about 5000kms and 3 months of use. This morning, I got the dreaded ‘Check electrical vehicle system’ error. A quick search online tells me it could be anything from a sensor issue to a valve problem. I just had the car towed to the dealership. Has anyone else dealt with this? What should I expect?
I’ve had this error twice. Restarted the car and ignored it.
Tried restarting several times, but the error stuck around. Still drivable, though. Waiting to see what the dealership finds.

Make sure they check the code right when they get the car. Mine disappeared after two days, and they never figured out what caused it. I got the error after leaving my car plugged into an AC charger for 8 hours. I haven’t tried using that charger again since.

I’ve had a similar issue with my Niro EV. Sometimes, after parking, it won’t shift into gear. I have to turn off the car, wait for 10-20 minutes, and try again. Once it shifts, everything works fine for hundreds of miles, but it happens again when I park.
I think it’s related to the auxiliary power system. One time it happened on the highway, and my hazard lights wouldn’t work because they were draining the battery. I almost got a ticket for being stuck.
I’m still waiting for the dealership to figure it out. They’ve had the car for days and keep saying they’re running diagnostics. No updates yet and no loaner either. I’m starting to regret this car after 4 years.
