    So this morning we went to the bank and there, they have free charging. So my wife went in the bank and I stayed in the car listening to music while the car charged. Except, after one minute and thirty seconds, the car auto shutdown, but charging continued. Is it normal? Is there a way to prevent that? I saw people mentioning 10 minutes but not a minute and a half.

    I believe the car needs to be in READY MODE to stay on longer but you can’t get to READY if the car is plugged in. Catch 22 ?
