My S5 Max avoided parts on the map without any obstacle?

My S5 Max avoided parts on the map without any obstacle?

AdamZampa 722 11 3

This has only occurred recently after I've been using the device for more than a year. At some zones on the map, my S5 Max seemed to be thinking, it paused or move back and forth in small motion, then completely left out some parts on the map it was cleaning, but the the rest of the area on the map was still cleaned, given that these areas are clear of any object. It created a very messy pattern as seen in attached screenshot of cleanup summary.

    I wrote to email support. They asked me Serial Number, Receipt of purchase, video of a session and other informations. I spent all the afternoon to prepare to them all these infos, charging video on Drive and send them.

    Their answer? “The problem is your device, contact the seller for guarantee”.

    Only in this forum there are 4-5 people with the same problem and the same device. It’s so clear that the problem is the software… but they only told me “it’s a your device problem”.

    This is my last Roborock. Worst assistence ever.

    @RR_Support:

    Same, problem here... in my case the robot continues to avoid obstacles that does not exists, and after few minutes stops the cleaning raising and error.

    Roborock S5 Max, firmware: 02.15.30

    this screenshot refers to a cleaning of a room with 2 cycles (new cross pattern)... but the problem happens also with single cycles (In two rooms of my house). Never happened before latest update. Please, please do not ignore this bug, because is critical and makes my S5 Max nearly useless

    @SPlus91:

    It seems that the issue happens with the mop attached. Would you please remove the mop to see if the issue will still appear or not?

    I have the same problem. 
It's very irritating. 
I can't really use Roborock S5Max for wet cleaning.
Pay attention to the problem, Roborock Team!!!

Version is 02.15.30

    @nixs:
    Hi,
    We apologize for the inconvenience caused.
    Do you mean the issue only happens with mopping, but didn't appear when the device is vaccuuming?
    If that's the case, it's highly likely that the wheels got slippery when mopping. We suggest you contact support@roborock.com to get further assistance.

    @RR_Support:
    Yes, the problem was that the wheels were slipping.
I cleaned them with a toothbrush and window cleaner, then dried them carefully with a microfiber cloth.
Finally I have a good cleaning from Roborock :)
I also saw that a new update came out today. 02.15.66
