I brought my 4xe to an area dealership nominally for an oil change and get the codes read. The service advisor told me these engines are filled with break-in oil and so I really should wait for more like 7500miles rather than the 2500 I am currently at...of course this advice may have been related to their online appointment system snafu. They gave me an appointment at 4:30, but all their technicians go home at 4.
Regardless, he was able to read the stored codes for me. Most revolve around the HV System Interlock. My guess would be a bad connection or malfunctioning sensor to me. Note there are both High and Low range warning messages.
The vehicle has been driving normally - with the exception of the auto park repeatedly triggering (see code B25C9 below) while I was slowing to a stop. My Jeep was rolling on 37's at the time and filled with a 37" spare and all the stock tires & wheels.
Also, I suspect the Pedestrian Alert Module failure occured when the tire shop disconnected my spare tire mount in an attempt to place a 37 there...I told them it wouldn't fit, but that message never made it back to the tire tech's.
The service advisor suggested I keep the battery charged up to near full capacity and run it on gas as much as possible. Right...Kind of defeats the purpose of having a plug-in hybrid.
Trouble codes (see image above for descriptions):
ECU Code
PCM B25C9
BCM B2779-04
BPCM P0A0A-00
BPCM P0A0C-00
BPCM P1E73-00
BPCM P1E74-00
HCP P0A0A-00
DASM C2226-00
My plan for now is to keep driving it and make sure I have sufficient food and water and my hiking boots in case it leaves me stranded out in the woods somewhere.
@JeepCares is there a way to find out which area service department technicians have been trained on troubleshooting the 4xe? I'll happily take it to any of the dozen or so Puget Sound dealerships if I know it can be properly diagnosed. Autonation Bellevue does not answer emails or their phones; Bud Clarey Jeep in Auburn seems to provide dubious advice.
