All of a sudden, I-pedal mode became weak, and we ended up using the brakes more frequently (almost every time) to slow down the vehicle on local roads.
The whole family used to love I-pedal driving. It was so convenient, especially in local driving (lots of signals and slow traffic). Now, this feature has become useless, and it feels like driving a normal gas car.
Is anyone else facing a similar issue? Is this because of the latest software update or some faulty sensor? Any ideas? Thank you.
I don’t feel it all the time, but there are times when I think it should have slowed sooner. However, it’s anecdotal and probably related to my mood. It still works for me, though. What you’re describing sounds more abnormal. I also have a ‘23 RWD.
Does the regenerative braking setting affect how the car acts in I-pedal? Could that have changed either by an update or by someone in the menus? I would check but I’m charging right now.

Yes, it does. On my GT-Line, it’s easy to change the setting by tapping the left or right paddle while driving. Pressing the left paddle multiple times will set it to the strongest setting/I-pedal. Maybe you or someone else accidentally changed the setting or set it to auto.
