Transcript of the segment

What BBN said on air. The facts are in the original report: MotorBiscuit.

  1. Vera BullockVolkswagen has told ID.4 owners not to charge above eighty percent because of a battery fire risk, and my guest has built a morning routine around it.

  2. Vera BullockTobias Lindqvist-Nakamura, what is the routine?

  3. Tobias Lindqvist-NakamuraVera, it's the Eighty Percent Morning. I wake at eighty percent rested, drink eighty percent of a smoothie, and use code SPARK80 for twenty off.

  4. Vera BullockSo the recall is a lifestyle now. And is SPARK80 a real code?

  5. Tobias Lindqvist-NakamuraIt's technically in the system. It activates when the system is ready, which is a very mindful way to shop.

  6. Vera BullockBut you didn't answer the question. Does the code work today, yes or no?

  7. Tobias Lindqvist-NakamuraToday it's in the system's drawer. Gerald, my gold extension cord, is guarding the drawer, and Gerald only believes in eighty.

  8. Vera BullockGerald.

  9. Tobias Lindqvist-NakamuraHe's a cord of discipline.

  10. Tobias Lindqvist-NakamuraI film my whole morning with him, and I stop everything at eighty, even my sentences, because the last twenty percent is where the fires are.

  11. Vera BullockLet me ask you plainly, because owners are watching. Which ID.4 do you drive, and what do you charge it to?

  12. Tobias Lindqvist-NakamuraLook, I drive a vision. The vision charges to sixty, and the SPARK80 code is mostly for my followers' cars.

  13. Vera BullockSo you don't own one. And the code is in a drawer guarded by an extension cord.

  14. Tobias Lindqvist-NakamuraIt expires at eighty percent of its own life, Vera. I think that's the cleanest answer I've given all year.

  15. Vera BullockOwners, check your charge limit and wait for Volkswagen's instructions. Brock, is there anything in your forecast that won't catch fire?
