Default Car wash / Unusual soc display

Waited 20 minutes in line for car wash with auto-stop active. Only the brake lights were on.

Didn't notice soc when pulling into car wash and shuting car off, but when I restarted the car 3 minutes later to pull out, soc was at 2 bars

Took the car for a ride to recharge, no forced regen

Coasting and braking brought on regen normally. Was able to command assist at will.

After on interstate for a couple miles, forced regen came in at the normal 4 bars, began and completed normal recharge, and returned to normal performance.

Anyone else have a similar drive in car wash experience?

55 mph air dryer seemed to resolve the issue.
