    Vancouver dealer recommendations?

    I used Eagle Ridge GM on Barnet Hwy. The salesmans name escapes me right now but I have his card in the car. My wife is away for the weekend in the car. I will check on Sunday evening for his name. He was not super knowledgable re the car itself (it was the first one the dealership had received)...

    BOLT SEAT ISSUE - no DATA thread

    So you agree that the seats as supplied are not comfortable. I have a Bolt, the first sold in British Columbia I'm told. It has 14,000 Km's on it. I also own a Kia Soul EV. I have a $25 foam base cushion and $25 padded seat cover on the drivers seat. My car is waiting for warranty repair of the...

    BOLT SEAT ISSUE - no DATA thread

    I would love to speak with your salesman. What a load of rubbish he is spouting. I'm 220 lbs and I love the seats in our Kia Soul EV (a similar size vehicle) and I've never had an issue in any car I've owned with the size of the seat, and I've had some small cars, (Nissan Sunny, Renault 5, mini...

    BOLT SEAT ISSUE - no DATA thread

    If you don't mind sharing, what is your height, build. Having read just about every post on this and another forum about the seats, and the size of the people commenting on them (those that have shared) I believe that if you fit in the seat it is acceptable or even comfortable for some. However...

    BOLT SEAT ISSUE - no DATA thread

    30 minute test drive, you don't live in Canada do you ;) Test drives of any length are still virtually impossible here. Not a demonstrator anywhere in the whole Province of British Columbia to my knowledge. It's not rocket science you are right, it's Mission Impossible here. I like the ride, I...

    Bolt Front Seats Recall Media Campaign

    Hands up, not only did I spot the issue, I went in knowing about it as I had read this forum. Myself and my wife talked about it long and hard after the short test drive. It was our only negative. The test drive was short because the car was not a demonstrator, it was the only (and we were told...

    Bolt Front Seats Recall Media Campaign

    If you track who's on line you will see that I am not a daily visitor. Hence not answering your question in a time you deem suitable. As for your comment about being a repetitive whiner a check of my posts will reveal I have praised the car in every area, but the seats. When I drove the car (the...

    Doug Score Review = 59/100

    When I saw 59/100 I was concerned but having now watched it I see it is actually a good rating on his scale. Good review that I agree with in a lot of areas. I hope Chevy have seen it and take heed of his very few gripes.

    Bolt Front Seats Recall Media Campaign

    Sorry, I didn't realize that there was a limit on the length of a post. I would love to do a self funded seat fix but it would surely effect a warranty claim. My car is going to the dealership because of seat issues that the service manager looked at before I went away for the summer. He said it...

    Bolt Front Seats Recall Media Campaign

    "We all agree" is not accurate, I agree with you there. But I have had 6 people at work drive my car because they are (sorry were) interested in buying one. Only one (5'2" and probably 110lbs) thought the seats were "alright, but very hard". The others, all various size males and none over...

    Vacation Storage Plan

    Thanks BoltEv17 I appreciate you taking the time to post the manual. I had read that but was concerned with the idea that the main battery would fully discharge which is not supposed to be good for it in the long run. Most things I have read suggests unplugged with the battery in the mid to...

    Bumpy Ride - Stiff Suspension

    Let me first say that I'm a Brit and so am very used to and love stiffer riding cars. As such I don't find the Bolt overly harsh, I actually quite like the handling. It reminds me of a couple of "hot hatchback" cars, as they called them, that I owned in my younger days back in the UK...

    Vacation Storage Plan

    Amber/Chevy Customer Care, I leave for Europe on Tuesday. Any advice you can give before then would be appreciated. I am sure the original poster would also appreciate any advice on his question. Thanks Paul

    BOLT SEAT ISSUE - no DATA thread

    Sorry to hear you are not happy with GM but I'm thinking it is the dealership that you are not happy with ? So far I cannot complain about the dealership as they are fresh into my seat issues. When I bought the car I expected that any problems I encountered would be new to them, and the manager...

    Seat split at the seams

    Went into dealership and service manager said they will need to take the seat apart and likely replace the cover. He is also going to speak with Chevy and explore my concerns re general seat comfort (or lack of it). Service manager was great but said it was the first Bolt he had had in the shop...

    BOLT SEAT ISSUE - no DATA thread

    Went to dealer today. Service manager said he would at the very least need to take the seat back apart and was going to order a new cover as he believed that was going to be needed. He said that it is the first Bolt he has had in the shop (no surprise there around here). I told him my problems...

    BOLT SEAT ISSUE - no DATA thread

    So I now have the same issue as other posters have, with the seat padding coming away from the frame on the drivers seat back . I also have a loud knocking/clicking type noise when I lean any weight against the seat back near the top. I do this on a regular basis when I'm in the car as I try to...
