5 common Tata Curvv EV faults — and how to fix each

1. Curvv EV not unlocking with proximity key

Step-by-step fix:

1. The proximity sensor in the door handle is sensitive to phone-case magnets and EMI from public chargers.
2. Move the keyfob into your other pocket.
3. If still failing, the key battery (CR2032, ₹50) is likely depleted — last 12-14 months.

2. ADAS adaptive cruise dropping out on highways

Step-by-step fix:

1. Radar behind the front grille fogs up in dense morning fog or after a car wash.
2. Wait 5-10 mins for it to clear.
3. If it never re-engages, the radar module needs realignment — workshop job.

3. Sunroof making creaking noise over speed bumps

Step-by-step fix:

1. Known issue on early Curvv EVs — the rubber gasket dries out.
2. Apply silicone spray (not WD-40) on the panoramic sunroof rails every 6 months.

4. Real-world range 15-20% below ARAI claim

Step-by-step fix:

1. ARAI testing is at constant 40 km/h with no AC.
2. Real-world Delhi summer driving with AC on, mixed traffic, will give 75-80% of ARAI figure.
3. Plan to 80% of the rated 500km range — that's industry-standard.

5. Wireless Apple CarPlay disconnecting mid-drive

Step-by-step fix:

1. iOS 17.4+ has a compatibility bug with Tata's head unit.
2. Force-quit CarPlay on iPhone, restart car, reconnect via Bluetooth first then CarPlay.
3. Wait for the next OTA firmware update for a permanent fix.
