    Sub $250 month lease - when will it happen?

    Amber? Request for ya'.

    How much time has been wasted on this? One GM Corp phone call or Chevy live chat session would have satisfied this request in 10mins...

    Sub $250 month lease - when will it happen?

    The mechanics of leasing aren't rocket science yet if one can only comprehend "but GM isn't giving up the full $7500 off" and not "$0 out of pocket, 35 months of sub $250 is a great deal!" no one will want to help them get a deal... Like most automakers, lease offers and GM Factory incentives...

    Special Charging rates for Bolt Owners

    To oversimplify OPs question, they want free stuff so they believe their best course of action is to mention that two competitors offer this incentive (and have for years) along with attempting to insult GM by passively aggressively calling the Bolt a compliance car...Hopefully GM will either...

    Is Chevy investigating seat complaints?

    Yeah, that's my best guess...I believe we'll see the MY19 this fall, its just extremely strange they kept the MY17 Bolt EV running until the end of the 2017 but also produced the MY18 Volt during the fall...Supposedly, to quality for ZEV credits, it ignore model years and sales, it's only the...

    Is Chevy investigating seat complaints?

    Lol...Looking at a MY18 in pictures, it appears there were no changes for the MY18 seats, in particular the side trim looks like it can still "pinch"...I'd guess people are driving around in them now can confirm that either is or is not the case...Furthermore, there are unconfirmed rumors the...

    Amber? Request for ya'.

    They haven't had any real responses since the summer; they did log in on Halloween, posted five times each time asking that you email them vs addressing issues or answering questions on the forum...It seems the overwhelming majority of the time they try to steer you to your nearest dealership...

    Is Chevy investigating seat complaints?

    The GOP tax bill where some were uncertain if the EV tax credit would remain surely inflated the some of the sales Nov & Dec...However, there was an IEV article that stated that 80% of all EV owners lease (55% of PHEV lease) so this end of year theory only applies the 20% minority... The "lease...

    Is Chevy investigating seat complaints?

    I posted in the other thread that it in pictures the MY17 and MY18 seat and in particular the side plastic seat trim do not appear to have changed but that isn't to say the MY18 seats have some less visible changes such as more/denser foam...Now some are claiming that the MY18 will be an...

    MY18 seats look the same as MY17 seats

    MY18s are out, looked at cars.com, found some listings that had photos taken of seat frame, found a MY17 and compared it to the MY18 seat frame and it ultimately LOOKS the same...Not to say they didn't makes changes to the foam but who knows...If you'd like to compare for yourself: Both...

    Infotainment ===> 15.0

    I went a new direction, went back to chevy chat which requires a drop down to why you're communicating with them...I selected EVs before, now I did shopping for a new vehicle, asked if GM Marketplace was available on the base trim 2018 Equinox...After at least a five minute delay the rep stated...

    Infotainment ===> 15.0

    You were right...After several fails which I'll list below, finally received an answer by emailing OnStar: "Unfortunately at this time, the 2017 Bolt EV will not be receiving Marketplace." I'm just surprised there's so little data out there with compatible models and whether it's tied to...

    Infotainment ===> 15.0

    Here's what's actually coming soon...GM has stated they're already begun rolling out the "GM Marketplace" to the infotainment system all 2017 and 2018 GM vehicles; I just searched this forum for marketplace and it appears there aren't any posts about it being rolled out to Bolts yet...Front page...

    Driving a Bolt from LA to Boston?

    Trying to determine why the OP asked such a basic question and he claims in his other posts he has used plugshare before; my best guess is he's baiting GM to say "no" so he can counter with Chevy should fund more charging stations? GM did announce in their electrification plan that they will...
