    Hot while charging

    Hi, I had an incident earlier in 2020 when the ambient temp of my garage was probably in the 50s or 60s (F). Nothing extreme for sure. I was charging my Bolt and left it plugged in for a while. I came into the garage and found that it was really really warm and the fans on the charger were...

    Carplay switches audio

    I think it relates to the phone bluetooth, not carplay. I've noticed that whenever my phone has a webpage open (even if I'm not actively using Safari) with a youtube video, or something that uses the audio, it will fight with Apple music. I think when I plug in the phone, carplay turns on, but...

    Carplay switches audio

    So my issue seems to have resolved itself? I am back to being able to use SiriusXM on the dashboard without any changes on my end. Which leads me to believe that maybe there was a SW update somewhere that fixed it.

    Question for Anyone with Chargepoint Home

    I have a Chargepoint Home and that "holster" gets knocked off regularly, so I can assure you there's nothing electrical - it's just plastic. And mine will probably get worn out at some point!

    Goodbye to my Beloved Bolt

    I truly think the Bolt is the most underappreciated EV out there at the moment. If I could have a more comfy drivers seat, I would be completely satisfied, which has never happened with a car purchase for me!

    Cold Weather Issues

    Agree with marspilgrim - I purposely planned for loss of range in the winter, and it seems to be doing as I expected. Only real surprise is how quickly the windshield fogs up. I didn't anticipate this, but guess it makes sense with the lack of engine heat. I agree, you really have to use the...

    Carplay switches audio

    Hi, I seem to be having the same issue as this person in the apple support community, but can't find the answer, so I'm trying here. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/8648766 Summary is I have an iPhone 11 and CarPlay WAS working and I could switch back and forth between audio sources...

    Bolt Front Seats Recall Media Campaign

    New Bolt owner here... has anyone tried adding any padding to see if that fixes the seats? is there a way for anyone to swap out the seats? i agree, shorter drives are ok but longer drives i definitely feel it. Lyfty - have you tried stretching? Doing lots and lots of stretching (yoga-like)...

    Love my Bolt...HATE the seat!

    Totally agree. For <1hr durations in the car the seats are OK but for longer periods of time they really start to hurt my back. I recently drove a charger as a rental and the bucket seats were so very nice compared to the Bolt. I would love to see an upgrade here. Lower back adjustments have...
