    Bolt keeps honking at me...

    Good thoughts, but the second key is never near the car and the honking has happened in parking lots as well as in the garage- so no way it was a charging interrupt. Since turning on the auto-lock, hasn't happened once. Odd... my guess is the anti-tamper of some sort, but the indicator isn't...

    Battery Management

    First - I have been running my car from about 90% down to about 25% before charging. This is mostly due to convenience since my last car had to be charged daily and now I can go four days. Oh, the freedom. I thought about the design that went into this car when choosing on a routine for...

    Bolt keeps honking at me...

    Unfortunately, no. None of the noted scenarios from the manual apply. This happens when I enter the car after it has been parked for a period of time (with or without being plugged in). The only thing I could think was that it was because I wasn't locking the car (maybe the tamper...

    Charging fails

    An update on this: It happened again the day after I wrote the last post. I think I jinxed myself (see if it happens again tonight...). To clarify for everyone - this happened in the middle of the night every time; that means it started charging then at some point hit the error and stopped...

    auto seat heaters

    After my first 2000 miles, I almost always have to initiate the seat heaters. Only once have I specifically noted the heat coming up through while in auto. More commonly, I get sick of waiting for their heat and flip it on. With the intent of these to be more efficient heating (versus the...

    Bolt keeps honking at me...

    Unfortunately this happens often regardless of charging events. When I get in the car, it is still in its startup mode (before I push the power button) when it honks, so there is no displayed notifications. I am wondering if this has something to do with leaving the car unlocked then returning...

    Bolt keeps honking at me...

    Help? About 1/3 of the times I hop into my car, the horn chirps a few times before I have a chance to turn it on. Any ideas which "feature" is causing this one? Maybe because I forgot to lock it between uses?

    Charging fails

    I know it has been a few weeks since you posted, but thought I would throw this out there: I have the same L2 charger/setup and this has happened to me twice in the past month of ownership; I have also had the issue with the infotainment system twice, but these were not at the same time as the...

    Plugshare/Chargepoint Post $$/Pictures/Tips/Information

    The app for ChargePoint already has this; you set the length of charging and time of day, then you get an estimated cost at any given station. Some evGo stations didn't price out, but most did.

    Infotainment settings not saving

    Yesterday I spent a good 20 minutes setting my radio favorites. This morning I drove to the store (favorites as I left them) and parked. As soon as I turned the car off, the radio switched to accessory mode and, voila, the favorites reverted to how they were before my changes yesterday. This...

    Included Premier Accessories?

    It has been a fantastic first week of ownership (much nicer than the fiat 500e!) and as I sift through the rubble of my excitement I found two things peculiar: 1) there is room for a bunch of accessories in the foam trunk holder 2) there are screw Hiles on the inside of the roof rails This has...

    Brake lamps when slowing in L mode?

    I have seen the red glow in my back window slowing in "L". I have also noticed they turn off below ~5 mph so you still need to brake at then end and while stopped.

    Driving in low

    And of course, I posted this in the wrong section... sorry everyone. I will try to move this to a more appropriate topic

    Driving in low

    I heard recetly from a volt driver that since there are no gears, driving around in "Low" is simply setting a different regenerative charging point in the accelerator- this driving in low makes a more efficient driving experience. So, I tried it. And let me say, I can't go back. The...
