Consumer Description

BACK IN JUNE 2020 TOOK MY 2013 CHEVY VOLT TO FERMAN CHEVROLET FOR SERVICE HIGH VOLTAGE SYSTEM FAULT, DRIVE BATTERY NOT FULLY CHARGING, REDUCED PROPULSION FAULT AND BURNT ODOR FROM UNDER HOOD. THE DEALER FIX WAS PREFORM GM SERVICE BULLETING. NEXT WEEK STILL NOT FULLY CHARGING. WAS TOLD TO DRIVE CAR SO THE BATTERY CAN LEARN MY DRIVING HABITS. STILL NOT CHARGING. ON 16 OCT SAME PROBLEM AND WOULD NOT DRIVE. NOW THE BATTERY 8 YEAR WARRANTY HAS RAN OUT. NEW FIX IS $5300 BATTERY REBUILD AND I SAY THEY NEVER FIXED THE ORIGINAL PROBLEM. CAR HAS 85 THOUSAND MILES AND WILL NOT DRIVE.
