The car that never sleeps
I've owned my Polestar 3 for more than seven months, and I've noticed some unusual charging behavior.
When the car is plugged into my home charger (made by Autel) and reaches the car reaches the set charge limit of 90%, the charger stops as expected. However, a few minutes later, the car requests more power. It continues to do this periodically throughout the night, even though the charge limit has already been reached.
I asked Polestar about this in their Facebook forum, and this was their response:
"Based on your description, this appears to be intended behaviour. There could be many reasons as to why the car wakes up, for example, to send/receive info from the app, check battery conditions/temp, or if a key (mobile phone) is close. As always, if you would like us to take a closer look, you're welcome to reach out to our team at Polestar support."
I'm curious whether other Polestar 3 owners are seeing the same behavior. Is this normal, has anyone else noticed their car sleeping and waking up constantly while charging or not charging?
For background my garage is detached and currently the ambient temperature inside is 74°. The car says the battery temp is 72° and there are no 3rd party apps running in the background.
