Has anyone figured out how to mute or manage those recurring sensor alerts in snowy conditions? I’ve had my Solterra for a while now, and whenever snow or slush covers the front sensors, I keep getting nonstop notifications about blocked features. It makes sense once in a while, yes. But having it pop up every 10 to 30 seconds while driving is annoying, especially when you need to focus on the road in the winter.

I pressed the "Return" button to see if that would temporarily turn off the alerts, but it didn't work. It would be nice if there was a way to just acknowledge it once without turning off all the features. Has anyone else had this happen? 😖

That's really irritating. If you don't need a full charge, simply set the charge limit to 80% or 90%. That way, you won't get those stupid warnings, and you can actually use regen braking to charge the battery.
 
Yeah, those alerts can be super annoying in snowy conditions. I’ve found that giving the sensors a quick wipe when you stop helps, but obviously that’s not always practical during a drive. Some folks swear by applying a thin layer of rain repellent (like Rain-X) to the sensors, it can help slush slide off more easily.
 
These sensor alerts are driving me crazy! I wish there was a way to acknowledge them without turning everything off. I've tried turning off the parking sensors for a while, which helps a little, but it's not ideal. Anyone else found a better way to deal with this?
