I just received a letter from OnStar telling me to update my credit card information with them. I thought my 2012 Volt came with 3 years of the Direction & Connections plan. Why do they care if my...
I decided to avoid the highway while taking the Volt in for some service at the dealership. All the backroads with their lower speeds and steady driving pace let me get my first 50+ mile drive on a...
Cord, I popped the hood and took a peek and sure enough, there are some wires coming out of the bottom of the left tank, so that should mean the work was done, but the bracket just wasn't put on?
...
I just call a Volt Advisor and she seemed perplexed as well. My VIN and manufacturing date indicates the work should have been done, but something isn't right with the bracket off. But I'm not the...
While browsing the forums I found this thread about the battery coolant level. I popped the hood and saw that the coolant level is not at the mid-tank seam (as suggested by that thread), but a bit...
Bazinga inspired me to get this done, and it's complete. I went to Sunset Glass Tinting in Woodridge, IL and had the Illinois legal limit of 35% on the side windows and back hatch. Brad did a great...
Near one of the many wind farms in Illinois.

Man, I just love the front and rear of the Ampera. Much more aggressive looking than the Volt. But I do prefer the Volt wheels.
Oh, and welcome!
I bellied up and sent an email as well. The response back didn't indicate a next week rollout, but they are currently awaiting "acceptance or rejection" from the Department of Energy in the next...
Unlike every other car I've owned, I now actually get a little excited in construction zones and driving behind truck convoys (except for gravel trucks, ugh). The trucks maintain a slower pace and...
The price isn't scary but the drive would be! Google maps is showing ~250 miles away. Still, the tint looks great and I'll be looking to get mine done soon. Thanks for the info.
Looking good! Someday I hope to spend some time getting my red one looking that sharp. Would you mind sharing where you got the tint done and the price? I see you're in Illinois as well. I'm in the...
Welcome!
I wanted to comment on the cargo cover. I also felt it was a cheap solution when paying this much for a car. My last car was a 07 Volkswagen with a really nice, easily removable hard...
The door placard says 3/12 so you're spot on. I popped the hood and didn't see any metal shields on the coolant lids, but I did notice that weird bracket under the hatch. Now I'm curious as to what...
So I did a little more forum digging and discovered that the charger model number I have is 22865050, which is the latest model according to this thread. My date of manufacturing on the charger also...
It's CU118827. To keep that in my signature, does that get shortened to C8827? Or include the two leading 1's?
Other than a co-worker of mine, I've yet to see another Volt out in the wild. I'm kinda digging the exclusivity but so many other people where I work don't even know what a Volt is or why it's such a...
Thanks for the info. The shorter 3-prong cord is orange so it looks like I'll need to get in contact with the dealership. Just giving them the serial number on the unit is all they'll need? Do...
Hello all, I'm a very excited owner of a Crystal Red 2012 Volt that I bought back on April 30th. I'm not new to the forums but I did finally register a username. I've been lurking here for months...
