Looks like 2023's are getting 25.8.5 and 2022's are getting 25.13.12 Since this is a powertrain update, would make sense if the modules...

I got this too. I was more excited that my OTA system still worked than to get a new config file.

I am thinking 12V fire wouldn’t heat up the HVB to start a chain reaction as fast as this fire seem to have spread.

??? It was being "FORCE CHARGED" by the Lightning???

blitzlinger reacted to The Weatherman's post in the thread My Lightning burned to the ground with Like.
That incident was caused by force charging the OHMMU battery in the truck while still connected to the truck. Again not just general use.

Those Ohmmus should be removed from shelves. That's how many now that have caught fire?

There are a lot more Teslas than Ford EVs on the road, so I’d naturally expect more reported incidents with Teslas.
