    The car has been running like a champ with no issues, then got home from a FCA luncheon and parked in my driveway vs the garage (the driveway has a slight slope and therefore not flat).
    I got in my car a couple of minutes later to move it into the garage and I got a couple of waring lights came on

    Also though the car has over 7,000 miles on it (turned over 7,000 on my way home yesterday), it has never been tracked or really driven hard, more of highway miles

    Over the years, I had many warning lights go on in my NA and hybrid models, all which reset themselves the next time you get in the car. If they persist then go to the dealer but o/w they almost always disappear. Their electronics are so glitchy but you'll get used to it. It's part of the Ferrari ownership that is free of charge!

    Funny, I just got the exact same two errors on my 812 GTS. Odd that someone else got this same combo. Coming from Porsches this is an odd part of ownership, and not sure if I have faith in long term ownership of this car. Always on the tender.

    @RobertM did you ever figure out what this was on your SF90?

    This is one of those weird Ferrari things, they are often traced back to the battery, even if it’s on the tender, batteries these days are not made all that well. It’s a pain but I would caution you to not jettison the 812 GTS due to a faulty battery.

    Why does this seem to be a common part of the Ferrari ownership experience and not other brands like Porsche? If its just bad batteries can't Ferrari put in a good battery from the factory?
