Just curious on people’s timeline for how long it took to get your battery replaced on the truck? Thanks

The battery is made up of modules, it's easy to service/replace modules.

The delays are always getting parts in a timely fashion.

Munro live has the teardown if you're curious.

I think someone here was quoted 10hrs for re and re of the pack.

Yes my rep at the dealer said the replacement only takes 1 day when they have the battery. I was told they are replacing the entire battery. 2 weeks and the dealer still has not received the battery.

One module was 7hr of book time I think. Not sure if more modules is more time -- probably a little more time but a lot of the effort should be the same.

My dealer got the module in a week or two I think...and got halfway through replacing it before realizing they had a broken tool, so it took about a week to finish.

There's the actual replacement of the battery module which is a day task. Then there's the rebalancing of the cells. My dealer said this takes 12 hrs to perform with a tool/machine.

It was just under four weeks without the truck for me to get it back. Over a week of that was due to the dealership not able to find a tool in their stock room right away...
