    Glad everyone is ok. It actually does not look that bad, especially compared to my car. I am not surprised that it was not totaled.

    I had hopes of replacing my Volt with an ELR but will not if the price is in the $60's.

    I will add that GM has made a lot of good moves in the last couple of years. I will hold out hope that they...

    I don't like this post either as it is tempting me to trade in my 2011.

    Love the new look of the C7 including the rear end. Will definitely be trading my C6 Z06 for a new C7.

    I used to think that Corvettes were over priced until I got a ride on a race track in a C5...

    Onstar called 911 when my wife totaled our Volt. Her phone went flying during the crash. This is why I buy Onstar as it can save someone life.

    I agree that I would like to see improvements in the...

    I switched from Taxcut (H&R Block) to TurboTax last year specifically because Taxcut could not do the 8936 form and TurboTax could.

    They state that the battery in the ELR is the same as the 2013 Volt. I do not understand why the charge time is 12 hours on 120 when the Volt is 10 hours ? It's also longer on 220.

    Just got off the phone with SPX. They have approved my replacement. Thank you Sarah from SPX.

    The first thing I did was open it up to verify that there was good 220 at the terminals. I then checked to see that there was 220 at the output of the fuses. If you have any other ideas of what to...
  12. DO NOT BUY SPX Voltec charger ! Poor reliability and poor customer service

    My replacement SPX charger failed on 12/17/12. I called SPX and waited almost 4 weeks for them to tell me it was approved for replacement. They new this was a replacement charger that failed.

    Absolutely.

    We lost our Red Volt in a major car accident when an old man pulled out in front of my wife. She T-boned a pickup truck and walked away with minor whiplash. I asked my volt advisor to...

    We had a similar problem with a machine in our factory, it kept faulting out.

    The solution was to drive a 8' ground rod (check your local code for proper length) into the ground at the machine...

    Just my opinion but run flat tires suck ! The one's on my Z06 lasted ~ 6000 miles before they were bald. They use a very hard rubber and this makes the wear properties bad. They also do not make any...

    Most low cost power meters measure apparent power not real power as they assume a power factor of 1. My meter doesn't even measure the voltage, it only measures current and assumes a voltage. This...

    Glad your wife is ok. My wife totaled our first Red volt so this kind of brought back some bad memories. Yours doesn't look that bad, I would expect that it is repairable.

    I love Onstar for this...

    If you can't get it repaired I would expect that you can sell the charger on eBay as the cord and plug are worth a fair amount.

    I suspect that GM changed the setting to prevent warranty claims on the chargers. If a customer has a bad outlet they will detect it when the charger fails.

    What GM should have done in my opinion...
