Has anyone had any problems with the 12v battery on their ID.4?

So far so good with mine, but I have heard of some other owners that had a dead battery, sounds a bit like what happened on the ID.3

No issues with mine sor far, but I only had it delivered yesterday!

Wouldn't like to have 12v issues. Looks a pig to remove/access.

I don't know about fully removing, but I disconnected/reconnected my 12v a few days after taking delivery. It was suggested as a solution to an issue with the big update (the update installed but didn't fully apply) and it wasn't very difficult.

My ID4 just threw the 12 volt battery error for the second time in 1 month >_<
Total PITA.
First it says I need to drive more to charge the battery and then says the battery needs maintenance.
Last time this happened, I brought it into the dealership and I believe they found it was a computer error.

Yes, bought mine July 2021, just got to 12,000 miles. Went to my garage to run a few errands, the car was totally dead. The key would not unlock the car, the car had been plugged in while I was traveling out of town for a few days. VW roadside assistance sent a tow truck the following morning, the driver rolled it out of my corner garage and took it to the dealership. When I spoke to the service department they said that they need to order a new 12v battery and it would take over one month to get the part in. I’m currently in a rental that VW is paying for.

There's a post in the ID3 section that may throw some light on the subject.
