Abstract
An electrified vehicle includes a global positioning system (GPS) module. The vehicle further includes a controller programmed to learn a source identification for a charging error during charge events. The controller receives location data corresponding to each charging error and utilizes the location data to determine the source identification. The source identification may be indicative of the vehicle, an offboard charger, and the operator. Errors that occur consistently at multiple locations may be assigned a higher probability of being identified as vehicle-related errors.
