A vehicle includes an energy storage device, a door configured to move between an open position and a closed position relative to the vehicle, an onboard power connector electrically coupled with the energy storage device, and a controller. An external power connector electrically coupled with an external power source is configured to couple with the onboard power connector to facilitate transferring electrical energy from the external power source to the energy storage device. The controller is configured to monitor a position of the door and limit the transfer of electrical energy from the external power source to the energy storage device when (i) the external power connector is coupled with the onboard power connector and (ii) the door is in the open position.
