Here's an update on the flat tire situation: The Chevy Bolt does not have room for a spare tire. Despite what Amber said in her message. It does not come with a tire inflation kit. It does come with tires that are described as "self-sealing". My wife got a small hole in the tire, and it...

Amber wrote: "Instead, they may contain a Tire Inflator Kit (TIK) that you can use in a flat tire situation" The Chevy Bolt is supposed to have special "self-sealing" tires. . There is no spare. To make mattes worse, the dealership called today to say that they couldn't find the same...

Originally, the dealership said that they would replace the tire without charge, and told us to have the car towed to them. When she arrived, the Chevy service guy, however, told my wife something different. So, I've got to argue the thing tomorrow. Yes, your comment seems appropriate...

We've only had the car for about 10 days, and it only has 250 miles on it. I shouldn't have to purchase a new tire immediately. I expect the dealership to replace the tire without charge. The Bolt doesn't come with a spare tires, because, Chevy claims that it isn't needed. Obviously...

Dealer does not keep spare tires, so EV is in the shop with a flat while new tire is ordered. Car has 250 miles. Sudden failure of front tire. Scary! Apparently, drove over something. Happened at low speed.

In response to the previous comments: My wife was driving. The tire went flat extremely fast, and she was surprised. Fortunately, she was in a residential area and wasn't going very fast when it happened. She thinks that she drove over something. The car has about 250 miles on it...

Bogus that there is no spare!

Thank you, DNAinaGoodWay, for that reference. When we got the car, the dealer just pointed to the glove compartment and told us to read the manual. We've tried to read the manual, but that document is more useful if you already know about the car. I really appreciate the help that we are...

The dealership did not seem to know anything about the car. We didn't get any training, other than being shown the headlights and turn indicator. We didn't even get an explanation about how to charge the vehicle, although it was certainly easy to find the cable and to open the flap. Can...

WetEV said, ".....So yes, slightly more than 2 miles of range per hour charging at 8A 120V is normal....." So, when Chevy says on their web site, that the L1 rate is approximately 4 miles per hour of charging, they are lying, big-time. Is that right? Also, WetEV, thank you for your...

To answer the questions, the dealership appeared to have an L2. Overnight, in 12 hours, the car added 25 miles when plugged into the "wall". Is that normal? Is there some reason that the first charge takes much longer than normal? In case its important to know the temperature, it is...

They certainly knew we were coming. Actually, they had us come into the dealership twice today. When we came in the first time, around 2:00, the vehicle was charged to 113 miles, and they told us to come back at 6:00. Then they called and said it needed more time, and to come back at...

We received our new Chevy Bolt today. We ordered it with the DC Fast Charging Provision. The dealer was not able to deliver it fully charged, however. He gave it to us at about 60% charged. He had it plugged in for several hours during the day. So, is there a problem with my car...
