Greetings folks, I picked up a 2020 GT premium last week and had this message on day 3.

I googled for hours before I was going to take it to the stealership to get it looked at. At one point even all my interior lights went out and basically everything in the center console went dead. So I got it home and began troubleshooting with my multi-meter. As I was looking at the BMS sensors moving wires around the lights were flickering. So I kept wiggling wires around that area to discover the ground wire going to the under hood fuse box was loose as all get out. The nut was actually only on by about 2 threads. Tightened it down good and checked all the others and haven't had an issue since. So if you are possibly having this issue you may wanna check how tight those wires to your under hood fusebox are.

Nice find on that ground, same thing was happening to me and its usually just a battery that's going dead, mine was just old. If this is happening you should definitely check grounds, and battery. Nothing major, hope this helps:thumbsup:
