I don’t know your driving habits in the Volt/Ampera but for the next 10 drives try and get 100% on the “Driving Style” and “Climate Setting” Efficiency gauges. I know it’s hard to do. It’s tough to...

IMO because the Volt is relatively new and one of a kind among ICE powered cars it is not reliably repaired due to lack of experience at dealership service departments. One reason I’m leaning...
You don't have to be a brain surgeon to realize a country who's transportation system runs 100% on domestically produced fuel will have a better economic future than one that imports foreign fuel. ...
My wife has a similar commute as you do highway and distance wise. We are waiting to see what the price on the BMW i3 will be. It has an all-electric range (AER) of 100 with a small range extender...
Congratulations on your 2013 Volt.
Some history….this site began when the Volt was just a concept car. Some say the site is the largest factor responsible for enabling GM management to bring the...
Worst case scenario the body shop gets paint dust on the rest of the car and rather than wash it off with soap and lots of water they wipe it off with a damp cloth creating scratch marks visible in...
The heated seat is a must. If they had offered cloth heated seats when I bought my Volt I would have taken that. Leather is very fragile. When I drive my kids in the Volt, I make sure they aren’t...
Welcome to the site Zaxxon. One of my favorite things on my 2011 Volt is the 30GB HDD. I was surprised to hear the 2013 Volts eliminated them. I was hoping the 30GB drive would have been replaced...
When I'm told my Volt cost GM $90K I say I love driving a $90K car that only cost me $37K.:cool:
Why GM is content to allow a company like VIA eat their breakfast is beyond me. They should have had a Voltec Silverado available for 2013.
This may sound weird but while driving on the highway a small bird flew into my front bumper and popped one of my sensors into the bumper. I tried to see if I could get my hand in to pop it back in...
Well said bonaire, I agree 100%. The tree is so expensive they don't like to post prices on their web site.
When I see one at my local Cadillac dealer in New Jersey I'll believe Wheatley's...
That guy never mentions Tax code “Vehicles & Section 179” giving small business owners a onetime $25K deduction for buying a vehicle weighing over 6,000 pounds like gas guzzling SUVs and trucks. He...
Try to understand the position of a man at the helm of a major public company with a new product that is making lots of money. Parts suppliers would ask for more money, employees would ask for more...
GM should buy for A123 and make their own cells in the U.S. -- instead of relying on third party sources.
That would give them the ability to negotiate cell price with third party sources.
They...
One recommendation, start a local public petition. Commissioners and Board members are generally people who take the privilege of serving the public and make it a lifelong career. If they had any...
Was this ever resolved? I think I'm experiencing the same issue. The tap sounds like a vent flap closing and occurs when climate control is on. Interestingly I found a small black rubber plug-like...
I ordered my Volt on 9/11/2010 and recieved it 1/22/2011. 133 days waiting for the best car I've ever owned or driven.
