Every hybrid vehicle is different. Some are named "hybrids" because they rely on battery power to propel or assist in propelling the vehicle. A hybrid vehicle might plug-in to charge, and some hybrids have regenerative braking. Some hybrid models have both a high-voltage battery and a conventional 12-volt battery. With so much variation in hybrid vehicles, your 2020 BMW i8 needs someone who knows it inside and out. We've got you covered. Your neighborhood Firestone Complete Auto Care location is fully equipped to offer conventional and low voltage services for all hybrid vehicles, including your 2020 BMW i8.

Select locations also provide high voltage services. A high voltage service is one that involves removing the BMW's high voltage safety/service disconnect plug/switch, servicing any high voltage cables, the power inverter, the electric machines/motors, the high voltage battery pack, high voltage A/C compressor, etc. Call ahead of time to confirm the high voltage services at your closest location. Some of these high voltage vehicle services might include:

Hybrid vehicle diagnostic: Once we identify the symptoms, a diagnostic is the next step we take when you bring your 2020 BMW i8 in to identify the root cause. a diagnostic is performed to get to the bottom of the trouble with your 2020 BMW i8. With the details gathered, your technician can further diagnose any hybrid car problems you're having and determine what tests (if any) are needed. We won't perform any repairs without your approval.

Hybrid high voltage battery cooling system inspections: Your technician will closely examine your BMW i8's battery filter (if applicable), and then clean its ducts. (This applies to air-cooled high voltage batteries. Liquid-cooled or refrigerant-cooled high voltage batteries are inspected differently.)

High voltage cable inspection:  Your technician will look closely at the outside connectors and cable jackets on your 2020 BMW i8 and check to make sure no high voltage energy is transferring to the chassis. They'll let you know if the cable is damaged and needs replacement.

Isolation test: For this test, a technician uses a special tool to see if any high voltage parts are "leaking" electric energy to the chassis.

Remove and replace hybrid electric battery: Is the high voltage battery inside your BMW i8 failing or weak? Let us install a new one.

Health check for power electronic systems: We'll examine the regenerative braking, power inverter, and/or electric drive machine(s)/motor(s) in your 2020 BMW i8.
