XC40 Electric Transport Mode Issue

My 2020 Volvo XC40 electric indicates it's in transport mode after 134930 km. This causes electrical malfunctions and a non-functional navigation system. Has anyone encountered this?

Summary of the thread

A 2020 Volvo XC40 electric vehicle displayed a "transport mode" message after 134,930 km, leading to electrical malfunctions and a non-functional navigation system. This issue is likely due to a software glitch, as similar cases have been resolved by a software reinstallation at the dealership. The recommended solution is to have the vehicle serviced by the dealer to reconfigure the car's computer system, which typically resolves the problem without incurring charges.

Whoa, transport mode on an XC40 with that many clicks? That's like your phone suddenly deciding it's still in the factory testing phase after years of use! I had something similar happen on my XC40, though mine was practically brand new. The dealer said it was a software glitch. Did you try restarting the car? It's the equivalent of 'have you tried turning it off and on again' for cars!

I have already restarted the vehicle. Could you provide more detail regarding the specific software glitch you encountered? Were the symptoms identical, and did it require a software reinstallation to resolve?

Yep, pretty much the same symptoms - felt like half the car's brain was missing! Honestly, I wouldn't even bother trying to troubleshoot it yourself. It's almost certainly a software thing that only the dealer can fix. They probably need to reconfigure something in the car's computer. Think of it like a really complex computer needing a fresh install of the operating system. Just book it in and save yourself the headache.

I appreciate the confirmation and advice. I will schedule an appointment with the service department. The dealership completed the repair with a software reinstallation, and there were no charges for the repair.
