Frunk Warning Light
Hello All:
a couple times I’ve had a warning come up indicating my frunk was open and I needed to pull over and close it.
of course, it was not open and the message cleared on its own after ten seconds. My questions are:
1) anyone know what root cause is with a fix?
2) am I at risk the car would reduce power or leave me stranded?

Yeah that's a weird one. I was at the track a couple of weeks ago and left the frunk open for about :30mins. I closed it, started the car and had the same warning. I opened and shut it a few times with no luck.
The final solution was to disconnect the battery for a short time and reconnect. Fault cleared and haven't seen it since but I'm careful to not leave it open for too long.

I leave mine open overnight every day

Happened to me as well randomly while driving. Freaked me out as I was going about 60 and it cut my acceleration down. I mentioned it to my dealer and they asked for a video. Thankfully only happened once so far.

Hey, this is a known issue in the 24-25s with the soft close. A few people have had success in making sure their battery is good as it turned out to be an electrical gremlin.
I had this, and wound up getting the frunk latch assembly replaced under warranty.
