Has your BMW i3 been feeling a bit "off"? Maybe you've noticed slower acceleration, or it just doesn't feel as "peppy" as it once did. Whatever the issue, Firestone technicians can conduct a no-charge* electric/hybrid vehicle check to get a better idea. Perhaps there is trouble inside your i3's high voltage cooling system -- if the high voltage battery is running too hot, it will reduce your battery's performance. Or, perhaps there are Diagnostic Trouble Codes stored in one of your i3's electric modules? Firestone Complete Auto technicians are trained to provide conventional and low voltage services for all electric car makes and models, including your 2015 BMW i3.
Certain Firestone stores also have advanced/high voltage services for electric cars like BMW i3s. A high voltage service is anything that requires removing the BMW's high voltage, service/safety disconnect plug/switch, servicing the high voltage battery pack, high voltage A/C compressor, or any high voltage electric machines/motors or high voltage cables, etc. Before making an appointment, call your closest location to confirm that high voltage services are offered.
Your store's high voltage electric vehicle service may include:
Electric vehicle diagnostic: A diagnostic is the next step we take after noting the symptoms your BMW i3 is showcasing. This step will help us get to the bottom of the real problem. With those insights, a trained technician will further diagnose electric vehicle problems you're having and determine what tests (if any) are needed. No repairs are performed without your consent.
High voltage battery cooling inspection: The technician will closely examine the high voltage battery's filter and, if needed, clean the battery's ducts. (This applies to air-cooled high voltage batteries. Liquid-cooled or refrigerant-cooled high voltage batteries are inspected differently.)
High voltage cable inspection: Cables can get damaged. In this inspection, your tehnician will examine the exterior cable jackets and connectors and test to make sure high voltage is NOT transferring to the chassis of your BMW i3. If the cable needs to be replaced, they'll let you know.
Isolation test: For this test, a special tool is used to reveal if a high voltage component is "leaking" energy to the vehicle's chassis.
Remove and replace high voltage battery: Is the battery in your BMW i3 dead? Sometimes electric vehicle batteries can wear out sooner than you expect in hotter climates or if you use Level 3 fast-charging stations often, since these stations may heat the battery more. We can replace your electric vehicle's high voltage battery.
Health check for the power electronic systems: We'll check the power inverter, electric drive machine(s)/motor(s), and/or regenerative braking in your BMW i3.
These are only a few of the special electric car services that could be available at your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care. Call ahead to confirm!
