There is a goop and inflator kit made for that cutout, but it's way overpriced if you purchase the OEM one. That, and I don't like goop because it's less effective generally, and certain to mess up the TPMS sensors.
Cheapo plug kit, pliers/multitool, and inflator always did me good.
I wonder how long one is eligible for the battery replacement campaign? If I bought a car 5 years from now and discovered the recall had not been performed, would it still be eligible? There must be a statute of limitations on these things...
My understanding is max regen is achieved with 1-pedal mode and use of the regen paddle. Most people end up preferring 1-pedal operation, though I found it awkward in the 1-hr test drive I used it. My brain is too programed to coast at the first sign of traffic slowing down, which in 1-pedal mode means a pretty hard stop. Enough practice and I'd reprogram. Same with getting the paddle regen timing down.
