THE CHARGING CABLE DOES NOT DISENGAGE PROPERLY FROM THE CHARGING PORT. THE CAR INTERMITTENTLY HAS A CHARGING FAULT, DOESN'T RECOGNIZE THAT CAR IS UNLOCKED AND THEREFORE THE CABLE SHOULD BE ABLE TO BE REMOVED. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE CAR WILL ALSO NOT SUSTAIN CHARGING. OF COURSE CHARGING OCCURS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY. THE CAR WILL NOT MOVE WHEN A CHARGING CABLE IS ENGAGED.
