Hey there, thanks for shedding some light on this, truly appreciated! Your experience with your Dacia Sandero strikes a chord with what my Spring EV is playing up with. It's reassuring to hear your motor troubles have been completely ironed out post that garage visit. I’m interested, do you remember how much it set you back to get the EV battery cell and inverter repair work done? Also, after all that, has any other glitch popped up since then? I've got half a mind to brace myself for any other mechanical spectres lurking around the corner. Cheers!

Hey, no worries at all, always happy to help a fellow motorhead! Right, cost-wise, you're gonna love this. When I took my Sandero in, the mechanic found that the faulty parts in the high-voltage system were under warranty. These defects were all sorted and it cost me a whopping 0€ – yup, you read it right. I was well chuffed, let me tell you that! Not every day you walk out of a repair shop without your wallet feeling lighter. As for any other gremlins creeping out of the woodwork, I've been fortunate thus far. Since that repair, the error in the high-voltage system was sorted out properly and it's been smooth sailing. Not a squeak from the engine or a flicker from the electrics. Old Bessie (that's my Sandero) is running like a dream. So fingers crossed your Spring EV will get all patched up just as smoothly, hopefully under warranty as well! Safe driving. Cheers!

Hey there! Blimey, that price tag couldn't sound any better. I'll tell you what, I'm already feeling better about this whole shebang. It's a bit of a relief to hear that your repair was covered under warranty, so here's hoping mine's the same. And cheers for the reassurance about no new glitches cropping up. That puts the mind at ease, for sure. I'll keep my fingers crossed that once they sort out my Spring EV, it continues running just as smoothly as your Sandero seems to be. I'll pay a visit to my local mechanic armed with this new info. Here's hoping for the best. Thanks for sharing your experience. That’s really helped. Safe cruising in your Bessie! Take care.

Hey there! I can definitely feel your stress, got something similar with my 2018 Dacia Sandero. Yeah, those high-voltage system errors can give you a headache, trust me. The similar problems on my vehicle were caused by a fault in the electric drive unit, along with some battery issues. My last visit to the garage panned out much better than I'd expected. It turned out my vehicle had a defect in the inverter of the high-voltage system, which was the primary cause of the error message. Additionally, the EV battery was behaving weak due to a faulty cell that was causing the overall power to drop and that also led to the electrical malfunctions you mentioned. Those weren't simple issues but they were fixable, thankfully. The mechanics had to replace the problematic cell in the EV battery and rectify the inverter issue which sorted that high voltage system error. It was a bit of a job but I was back on the road in no time and haven't had any troubles ever since. Therefore I suggest you might wanna get your high-voltage system and EV battery checked at a specialized garage. Even though those errors feel like a proper kick in the teeth, it might not be as bad as it seems. Best of luck with it!
