I hope that things turn around for you. I'd be very pleased to see a follow up post at some point saying that you decided to shake things up and change your setup, or that GM may help you a bit,...

Darn! I had the torque app and the bluetooth device. I wasn't able to get any cool codes back when I had it so I sold it. I was planning on getting the dash daq. I still want to! but I will have to...
The lift points for the jacks, and the lifts are two different places. You jacked the car up in the wrong spot, (don't feel terrible, I started to and bent that metal slightly myself.) In the manual...
Inverse square law, magnetic fields fall off with the square of the distance.
You can be near an MRI with a pacemaker, (not in one of course.) So I'm sure our cars are perfectly fine.
It has to...
I would say that it's not the MRI. That being said you can simply call your dealership and the car can be towed utilizing your roadside assistance, or the warranty. It's likely some other odd...
I have been using mine for everything from bike racks, to towing a 750lb mower. No problems whatsoever. I live in the great plains though.
The Volt can pull a trailer so very smoothly though. In...
My Prius had heat synchs, you just don't see them. They make heat, but it's elsewhere and as previously mentioned it's very concentrated. The Volt's LED running lights have heat synchs I believe.

Recipe for disaster, using a same circuit as another decently sized appliance. The Volt really needs it's own circuit. (Unless you are charging at the lower charge rate.)
OH man, see? With this cold weather it can take a very long time on 110 no matter what. I have noticed increased charge time on level 2 also. It uses a bit of the energy to condition the battery and...
I like the idea of it being defaulted for their legal reasons. I think once you switch it, it should be switched though.
I don't think that most people just plug it into a "random plug" though....
Do they actually utilize the two phases though, and up the amps to 15 amps @ 240? Because if it's European style 220 then it isn't going to make much difference. I know people are having it done, so...
I know that's why they thought it was their right to make a decision for us, but that's not their problem. That has nothing to do with the car. That's just people who didn't read their manual or any...
LOL! That is way too funny. They are onto something. I mean, they have great thermal management. Mine is still taking just as much energy into and out of the battery as when I got it new! And I have...
Any details about the battery? I think that would be an excellent addition to Mr. Cote's idea of making a 2000W version. His current inverter can peak to that, but not hold it steady. It wouldn't be...
I just can't get over them implementing the 8amp default charge. I wonder what the heck they were smoking when they went through with that idea.
The fact is, I don't care if there have been charging problems. The other car manufacturers aren't having the same problems. It's due to a cheap POS EVSE, not to do with the amount of power being...
Exactly! Due to cost of charging being per hour, it's just dumb and many times not worth it to plug in for pay.
There have been many times I sit waiting for my car to charge before heading back...
Well, two things. I would try to get a 20 amp outlet so you have a bit of extra leeway, GFI really isn't necessary. The other issue is, I really hope you aren't running the fridge on the same...
Oh you certainly don't want it plugged into the same circuit as another appliance like a fridge.
Love the username btw, bazinga! :)
I have the SPX Power Express, and I love it. It's very handy. I charge at my parent's using dad's welding plug. I charge at my sister-in-law's using a stove plug in the garage, and I charge in my...
