Have owned 2018 Volt for almost one month. Instead of enjoying “new car owner” experience I’ve spent most of my month with various loaners from dealership and researching lemon laws as Volt has had reoccuring issues including propulsion issue and electronic stability control vehicle trouble codes.

Happy Buyer except Seatbelt Dinger&window stickers

Very pleased with the car except for issue [1] - Chevy keeps using driver side window stickers with glue that cannot be removed. These stickers inhibit driver vision and must be removed. When the sticker is removed, a large area of sticky glue remains that catches the rubber window seal and attempts to tear it loose, while making a terrible sound as the window goes up and down. To remove the glue residual, the buyer must use something like gasoline or GOO-BE-GONE to soften the glue so a rag can remove it. After the glue is removed, there is an oily residue remaining, that must be removed with a window cleaner. This 30-minute exercise is not appreciated as I recall I had the same problem on the last Chevy I purchased. Issue [2] - Seatbelt dinger is adjustable from very loud to painfully loud. Wife does not like driving the new car with such a loud seatbelt dinger. I cannot resolve and believe dealer will not consider an actual fault that requires repair.

Can loose all power while in motion! Gas engine can rev making the steering wheel brake non functionable, and when not expecting that, this is extremely dangerous. Chevy has reprogrammed some software on my car and they say that will solve the loss of power while moving issue. I hope so. The revving issue is normal per the shop foreman. Really?! The seats sit so low, and so far behind the B-post that the vehicle is difficult to get in and out of, and has caused my back some serious issues. There are very serious blind spots, even with the mirrors! On the positive side, it is enjoyable to drive an EV. Approx. 40% of EV range is lost when the temperatures outdoors are in the 30's (F) and below. The MPG as displayed on the instrumentation has steadily decreased to about 59 now, and having started around 75. Haven't had the car in hot weather yet. The seating material is really cheap! Lastly, for now, there is a driver's left foot rest pedal that is absolutely in the worst possible spot and very uncomfortable.

My 2018 Chevy Volt

I purchased my 2018 Chevy volt 3 days ago. I already charged it twice. Sadly the EVGO fast changing stations do not charge my car. It takes me about 6 hours to charge my car at a Charge Point station. I drive a lot that is why I picked a hybrid. I did not want a full EV vehicle because I drive into México a lot and would stress out of there were no charging stations. So far I do like the car. I put it at Car Max on Kearny Mesa from Rey. Car Max told me there were no recalls and found out there was one recall. So do not always believe what Car Max says about recalls on vehicles. Certain 2016-18 model years Chevy Volt vehicles may have a condition related to high voltage battery.Which could gradually lose the ability to maintain voltage. Chevy notice was received from the Chevy app I downloaded: Dealers are to update the hybrid powertrain control module 2.
