Neither of the two usb ports in my new 2016 volt work. Plug in an iPhone 6. Nothing. Anybody else have this problem?

#1 Make sure the latest iOS version has been installed
#2 Make sure a genuine Apple USB cable is being used. There is a bulletin for this sort of issue being traced to aftermarket, non-Apple USB cable.

Neither USB port on my 2017 Premier work. Will not charge and will not recognize any USB stick. I can only USB charge by using an adapter in the 12 v. outlet. Car on or off = the same negative result.
In short, both USB outlets are dead. Car was built in February 2016.
As "Kserraserra" writes above, it should be a straightforward dealer fix. I'll try to schedule this fix with the Android Auto update.

First time I plugged my phone into the USB ports of my new 2017 Volt, I found the same thing. The ports were both dead.
Strange thing was, when I pulled and then simply reinserted fuse #26, the ports were fine. That was a couple weeks ago and I've had no more problem from them. A flash drive is almost always installed in one. The other I use to connect my phone, for Android Auto.
The fuse panel is under the dash, near the steering wheel. The manual identifies which is fuse #26. I pulled the fuse using needlenose pliers, then just reinserted the fuse.

I had the USB ports die twice on my 2016. Both required a trip to the dealer. First time it was a hardware problem, and the second time turned out to be a software issue.

Just an FYI

This bulletin provides additional diagnostic direction when dealing with USB receptacle issues and how it isolate potential issues with the USB hub assembly

On July 15th I picked up my special order Premier and on the drive home from the dealer the information center went black and stopped working. I checked the owner manuel to find out the fuse number and location. When I pulled the fuse to check it, it wasn't blown and I was disappointed, but when I put it back in, the center started working and I've had no new problems since.
YES!
I had my car updated on Monday and it worked one day before I lost all power to the USB port- no Carplay, No Music stick. I searched out and read every article on getting Carplay to work. I followed every tip on how the settings in my iphone should be configured and still nothing worked... until I pulled FUSE 26!
Thank you, thank you thank you!! for posting this.
My guess is that is reboots the infotainment system and allows the USB communications to refresh anew.

Seven years later and I've still got that 2017 Volt. And I still find I occasionally have to pull and reinsert Fuse 26. Recently my Volt went in for it BECM replacement and now that it's come back I find I'm having to do the pull-and-reinsert Fuse 26 bit almost twice weekly. It's really getting tiring.
Was this ever fixed by Chevy? I mean, permanently fixed? I'm about to the point where I want to wire something that will bring that one fuse out to where it's easy to pull-and-replace. Or maybe install some kind of inline switch that breaks the circuit (which is what I assume I'm doing whenever I do the pull-and-replace).
