Navigate a tight parallel park or U-turn. | Note: Despite rear sensors, the long wheelbase and wide turning circle of the 5008 can be cumbersome in narrow New Zealand urban environments.
Execute multiple low-speed stops to test regenerative braking transition. | Note: Early Stellantis STLA platform models can exhibit a 'grabby' sensation as the system switches from electric regeneration to physical friction pads.
Rapidly cycle through the 21-inch Panoramic i-Cockpit menu layers. | Note: The heavy software load on the new infotainment system can occasionally suffer from lag or UI freezes; ensure the latest firmware is installed.
Listen for cabin creaks while traversing uneven road surfaces or speed bumps. | Note: The extra weight of the 73kWh-98kWh battery packs puts higher stress on interior trim clips and suspension bushings compared to previous ICE versions.
Initial EV health check: pollen filter replacement, brake fluid moisture test, and diagnostic scan for powertrain software patches.
Comprehensive battery cooling system inspection; check for leaks in the thermal management circuit and inspect reduction gear oil.
Major milestone: Formal Battery State of Health (SoH) certification and heavy inspection of suspension components (dampers/bushes) due to vehicle mass.
Annual 'State of Health' (SoH) battery diagnostic report.
Brake fluid replacement every 2 years to prevent moisture-related ABS/regen issues.
Tire rotation and alignment check every 10,000km to manage high-torque wear.
Cleaning of the high-voltage battery cooling vents/radiator faces.
12V auxiliary battery load test (critical for preventing 'bricking' electronic systems).
Estimated repair costs if issues arise
High-torque, high-weight SUVs require specific load-rated tires (e.g., Michelin e-Primacy).
Essential for efficient 11kW AC charging to avoid slow 8-10 amp 'granny' cable charging.
The single-piece 21-inch curved display is a high-cost component if physically damaged.
