2015 Chevrolet Volt owner complaints

I leased a 2015 Chevy volt, I used the supplied charging station to charge the vehicle. This device overheated earlier in the day, I decided to unplug it and try another outlet. I checked on it 20 minutes later and discovered it was still warm. I thought this was normal, considering it was charging a car. I plugged it in later in the evening. This charger supplied by Chevy then caught fire after being plugged in for about 2-3 hours, and that fire spread to our garage. This fire started from the charger itself and caused damage to our belongings and could have destroyed our entire home. *tr

While driving on the highway the instrument cluster went blank and turned off. This houses information like warnings, speed, fuel level, battery level, traction, navigation, odometer, light signals and other information. This is a huge safety issue while traveling down the road and losing your ability to look at the speed or if your blinkers or lights are on.

This car is connected to Bouncie a device that detects when a car turns on and off, the speed, if break or acceletor are stepped on forcefully and any trips. Recently the device is detecting the engine is turned off but the car is showing no signs of struggling and its in full motion. This is new, I've tested the device in another car for two weeks hoping it was the device but I had no issues on the other vehicle. The images is just one of several occasions. The image shows green dot where car starts and red where car is turned off. However, I never turned off my car at the Demaree Rd that day. I feel like the car is losing power and starts back up while in motion.

I was driving on a road at roughly 50 mph when suddenly without warming, the screen and everything shut off and went black in the vehicle, and then immediately turned back on, this time with the engine light on. In the following seconds, the gas pedal completely stopped responding, and I had to coast to a stop at the side of the road. It was a dangerous spot on the road to have this happen. I was able to power the vehicle off, and then back on again, and the vehicle functioned normally immediately afterwards, with no engine light on.

Car experienced sudden loss of power while driving. Warning appeared 'Propulsion Power Reduced.' Was able to continue driving short distance home and parked. Attempted to recharge battery but it would not accept charge. I was able to restart car again with "Propulsion Power Reduced' and drove to dealer. Diagnosis: Body Control Module (BCM) failed. Unit was replaced. Vehicle drove normally for short period and issue repeated within one day. Returned to dealer. Issue resolved after second attempt.

Tl* the contact owns a 2015 Chevrolet volt. The contact was unable to roll the front driver and passenger windows up or down. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The dealer and manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 100,000. The VIN was not available.

My 2015 Chevy Volt has been experiencing ongoing mechanical and electrical issues, including random power loss, reduced propulsion warnings, and sudden vehicle shutdowns with no prior indication. These problems pose a serious safety concern, as the car can lose power unexpectedly while driving. Despite these issues, GM has refused to service the vehicle or unlock necessary components because they no longer manufacture or support the required parts. As a result, I am left with an unsafe and unreliable vehicle with no available remedy from the manufacturer. This is forcing me to trade in the vehicle at a loss

"service airbag" warning on 2015 volt, which apparently is a well-known issue for which general motors refuses to take any responsibility. Airbags should not be a concern on car--ever. They want over $800 for the repair when it is clearly a manufacturing defect.

The service airbag request keeps showing up and I was told it was the Passenger presence module and sensor. This puts people at risk of the airbag not deploying correctly.

Car was purchased used on 9/12/18 with 50k miles and soon after purchase the service airbag warning pops up intermittently everyday during short or long drives. Common complaint is passenger airbag sensor but I have not taken it to be diagnosed since common repair costs is over 800 dollars.

When a passenger gets out of the front passenger seat a warning will flash saying to service the airbag. Problem will persists until the car is shut off and won't show up again until a passenger sits in the front passenger seat again. Seems to be a problem with the passenger occupancy sensor. The problem has persisted since beginning of ownership approx. 1 month ago, and continues until the date of this report.

The service air bag message intermittently turns on and off for no reason. Car has not been in an accident.

A "service brakes" warning came up when I was parked in a parking lot and immediately afterwards the brakes stopped working when I was reversing in the parking lot and I almost backed up into another car. I had my car towed to Paradise Chevrolet and they diagnosed the problem as a faulty "brake pressure modulator valve" (BPMV) that needs to be replaced. I saw that there is a recall for the 2012 Chevy Volt for the same issue, faulty BPMV.

Brake petal went to floor and now very hard to press.

Friday october 30 at 1 pm pacific coast time, my volt lost all power on the middle of the san mateo bridge. There was no shoulder and the car went from 70 miles an hour to a dead stop in about 100 ft. I had a "propulsion system failure" message on the display screen. I was nearly rear-ended by a semi, who in turn nearly turned over trying to swerve out of my lane. The semi nearly pushed another car into san francisco bay. This is a dangerous vehicle and the government should not allow it to be sold.

On 8/30/19, I started the vehicle to find the center console in the vehicle is completely blank and the computer controlling the screen is failing to boot. As a result, the operator cannot control the amperage at which the vehicle charges resulting in a reduced charge/range. Additionally, the voice command, stereo, climate control and reverse camera are inoperative. Further, all vehicle controls associated with when to charge (charge delay), security features such as audible horn when locking, which doors to unlock when unlocking vehicle, navigation and fuel efficiency information are inaccessible. Researching similar issues, has resulted in identifying numerous complaints and issues with this center console. The vehicle has a 5 year powertrain warranty; however, Chevrolet does not assoc

Tl* the contact owns a 2015 Chevrolet volt. The contact stated that the forward collision alert failed ever since the vehicle was purchased. The contact took the vehicle to two different dealers and was advised that the front collision alert system was working; however, the contact disagreed. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and offered no assistance. The failure mileage was 18,000.

If the exterior thermostat detects the temperature is at or below 37 degrees fahrenheit, the a/c compressor will turn off and all of the windows (windshield included) will fog up. Resulting in extremely reduced visibility. If the exterior thermostat detects the temperature of 38 degrees fahrenheit or higher, the a/c compressor will enable and the windows would immediately clear.

I have had a serious clunk in the front end since purchasing june 1, 2015. This happens when hitting bumps and road irregularities and only on the left side. It took until september 16th to get it into the shop and it's been there 49 days now. Chevrolet is saying this is 'normal noise' and my contention is it's a problem or a defect or worse - a safety issue. I find it funny (not really) that they've been telling me all along that the cruze uses same components. Now the cruze for 14 and 15, and the 14 volt is recalled. For a tie rod problem and replacement of steering gear. Not a nut or bolt has been touched by the people looking at my car, why are they so concerned unless there is something they don't know, that they aren't telling me. 49 days without my car now, 'everything is fine' is w

On all (4) tires, there is cracking in the sidewalls in a line about 2 inches above the tire bead around each tire. Approximately 19K miles on these tires. Manufacture and supplier/seller (Priority Tire) both sent multiple photos of issue, tread depth, etc. and then denied any warranty on the tires due to 'Improper Usage' (reply below) I asked the supplier/seller and the manufacture what that means and no reply. Tires are consistently rotated by myself and tire pressures consistently maintained. I am [XXX] and don't race or off road my Volt. This could be a potential safety issue if one or more tires were to fail unexpectedly. Please see photos and thank you for your help. Hello, We are reaching out regarding your warranty request. Unfortunately, the manufacturer/supplier declined y
