    I’m having similar problems with my brand new Rival ETAP AXS system. I bought the bike only two months ago, brand new, and suddenly got a “left shifter battery critical” warning on my Garmin computer. About a mile later my rear derailleur locked up (at the bottom of a hill, in my biggest gear) and I couldn’t down shift at all. A finished my ride standing on the cranks just to get home. This surprised me as this battery wasn’t old and the CR2032 shifter batteries are supposed to last a year.

    A few hours later I still had the “left shifter battery critical” error on my Garmin, but was miraculously able to downshift again.

    I replaced the left shifter CR2032 with a new, high quality Energizer battery and took two short ten mile rides. Looking at shifter battery life in the AXS app I’m already showing red/low battery on that brand new left shifter battery, though I haven’t had a warning pop up on my Garmin yet. So far I can still downshift, but who knows when I’ll get stuck?

    This is absolutely ridiculous. This system is brand new, and now I’m seriously worried I’ll get stranded and unable to downshift every time I go out for a ride, even with brand new shifter batteries. Not a good experience and regretting my purchase of this mess of a system.

    And before anyone wants to treat me like I’m a moron, yes I’ve upgraded to the most current firmware.
