    It sounds like it didn’t die in the carwash but overnight, so my guess is they plugged it in overnight after the wash and after it died the plug won’t unlock maybe?

      You gotta be a special kind of broken to not have power while plugged in.

        The body isn’t watertight and water collects in the frame due to lack of drain holes. The accumulated water shorts the electrical connections and discharges everything.

        Probably a lot of corrosion damage now too.

        Not being able to detach the charge cable due to lack of power is extra funny. They have a manual release but you have to remove a panel in the bed to get to it.

        Basically the vehicle is in beta but they released it anyway.
