Just wanted to give an update. They ended up replacing the entire battery. The new battery seems to have a little better range than my old one did when it was new. It's been about 4 months now, and no further problems. I asked for them to compensate for my gas during the time my car was out...

They told me the battery pack was bad, and they're in the process of replacing it now. It's been almost a month since they've had my car. In the meantime, I'm forced to drive around in a Chevy Equinox loaner. I'm trying to figure out how much compensation to ask for when they finally do...

Just wondering if replacing the ECM/PCM solved all the issues. My 2016 spark is now randomly showing the "reduced propulsion" message even though there's plenty of charge remaining. I'll be taking it to the dealer next week, but was just hoping to get better idea as to whether replacing that...

I got a good deal on a lease from Rydell Chevy in Northridge last weekend, so I thought I'd share it: 2LT with DC fast charger 12k miles per year 36 months Down: $2940 (includes all TTL and first month's payment) Monthly: $76 (includes tax) $395 deposition fee at end I worked with Ali there...

Thanks, Tony. That is helpful. If the difference in range is only about 5 miles, I can make that work. I live in SoCal, so it doesn't get cold often. I usually get home with about 15-20 miles of range to spare. It's when it cold, windy, and rainy that I barely make it home. I'll just have...

Can someone point me to Tony's report on the 2015 Spark range test? Usually, google is my friend, but for the life of me, I cannot seem to find it. I have a Spark with the older battery pack, and sometimes am just barely able to get home on cold windy days, so I want to know what to expect if...

Thanks for the tip on this. On my Spark, the vehicle options section was greyed out, which I thought meant I could not modify it. I didn't realize that the car had to be on for that section to be available. Seems strange that they ONLY allow you to modify that if the car is on, and yet only...

Can you tell me what the model number is of the one you bought? I already have a charger installed from the CEC program, but if it never hurts to have a backup. Thanks.

I have about 300 miles on my car and am consistently getting over 150 mpge per my onstar app. My roundtrip commute is about 62 miles, mostly freeway with standard SoCal traffic. I usually get home with 40 miles range to spare. Each time I charge up now, it says I have an estimated 100 miles of...

Drove to work for the first time today, which is 64 miles round-trip, all highway. It was 79 degrees in the morning and about 86 on the way home. I had my A/C and radio on almost the entire trip. Moderate amount of traffic, with speeds ranging from 50-70, with a couple of times down to about...
