I would imagin this applies for R1S also but my R1T was acting up lately.
Randomly, I find it powered up with the HVAC going. I’ll glance at the app and see I’ve lost 5% range in a few hours of it being parked.
If this is also happening to you, 99% chance it’s the occupancy sensor in the driver seat. An easy way to test it is watching for the “Push Brake to Start” message. It will only come on if it thinks there is a butt in the driver seat.
Ever since i changed out my seat assembly, I’ve been using camp mode to keep it powered down if I will be parked for a while. It’s pretty random.
There's a video I would have posted here so you can see the one I attached to my service ticket showing that it was still doing it. A quick fix is usually tapping the seat to cycle the sensor. You will see then see the Push Brake to Start message goes away.
