Just to close the loop on this in case it helps someone else down the road.
I did try resetting (then disconnecting) the 12V battery as suggested, unfortunately, no luck. When I eventually brought the truck into the dealer, they were actually very adamant that owners should not disconnect the...
My small but odd and frustrating issue is the windshield wipers.

Totally different than pulling our trailer about five months ago...
We got our 30,000 mile service done at Water Star motors in Santa Cruz, California for $250. They have at least one tech on staff that does regular EV trainings, and the service was great. No up sales, just ended with a recommendation to get some tires soon.
