Poll- Dual vs Quad Motor Failure/Replacement.

[Carscott]

I think this type of poll will generally be filled by those that are searching motor failure problems. So I don’t think there is a clear sailing vote is truly representative of the actual number.

This is (so far) a pretty small sample size, but an overall 12% drive motor failure rate, split pretty evenly between quad and dual is not encouraging. It would be good to know more detail about the failures, such as if they occur on early vehicles or are spread more randomly, whether they are front or rear, etc.

What we also don't know is the ratio of Quad vs Dual in # of unifs on the road. This could change the fail rate % significantly.

I thought I'd be replying to say I had the motor replaced, but in the end the inverter sealing had failed, causing intermittent faults inside. They just needed to replace the front inverter. Apparently a new part revision from what shipped with my May '23 build. So no motor replacement.
