Some low life has reversed in to the back of the car and driven off
We now have issues with the coolant..it's showing beneth the lowest line accepted.
Despite coming back from a service last week with coolant at correct level.
It was literally a tap on the back of the car that caused a small dint ..
Why are electric cars so delicate that they can't take a small tap

Nothing to do with it being electric.

It being electric isn't relevant surely? And they aren't more delicate that petrol or diesel models ime.

Pretty sure electric cars don’t have coolant? Can you check it manually? MG sensors are quite shitty. Take it to the garage if concerned.

They definitely do

Oops should have kept my mouth shut. I remember Tesla going on about how services are less and no liquids or moving parts involved - also in my head coolant is for the engine they don’t have. A quick google shows I don’t know what I’m on about. Excellent.

So basically...it turns out it wasn't the bump to the back of the car
The garage did the service and was meant to top the coolant up in the morning, following service the day before...as it takes time to settle but forgot...
So my DH had to drive it back a week later to have the coolant topped up.
If he hadn't thought to look when washing the car ,that could of caused it to go in to limp mode .
At least the garage didn't charge us for the coolant
