Well I reached the end of my allotted mileage on my 2014 Spark EV so I traded it in on on a new 2016 Chevy Volt: I really enjoyed the Spark but had too many times where range was an issue and since the Tesla Model III nor the Chevy Bolt are available I decided on the 2016 Volt. So far so...

I've had my leased Spark EV since July 2013 and XM/Sirius radio is still working (all channels), I've never received any letter or email for extending the service. I will not complain or ask why either. :D

Yep, this is my main complaint about this car, I absolutely hate the braking system. All I can say is that I'm glad I'm leasing and hopefully my next EV (whatever it is) has better brakes...

I had a similar issue, try logging out of the app and re-logging back in. That fixed my issue.

See this thread below, I've had a different pair of rear tires (brand) for a while now with no effects to range, performance, etc. http://www.mychevysparkev.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=3526

I've had my Spark EV since 7/3/2013 and I already have a whooping 16,910 miles driven! So I'm basically screwed on the lease mileage but oh well it is what it is... ;)

See section 8-1 thru 8-3 of the owner's manual. http://www.chevrolet.com/content/dam/Chevrolet/northamerica/usa/nscwebsite/en/Home/Ownership/Manuals%20and%20Videos/02_pdf/2k14spark_ev.pdf Basically turning off the Recirculation button will allow for outside air to flow through the vents albeit...

I had a similar thing happen to me this morning. I've had my Spark for just three weeks shy of one year and have a bit over 13k miles, drive pretty much the same commute everyday and I have averaged 123 MPGEe for the life of the vehicle. This morning starting out I had a range of 80 miles...

Not sure about the 2015 model but for sure by the 2018 model as the NHTSA has issued a final ruling requiring rear cameras in new vehicles by 5/2018: http://www.nhtsa.gov/About+NHTSA/Press+Releases/2014/NHTSA+Announces+Final+Rule+Requiring+Rear+Visibility+Technology

Haha, I just realized those were in the picture. Yes they are, my son plays travel ice hockey and he shoots them all over the place outside (you can see the white skill pad at the top of the picture). It's amazing the places I find them... ;)

Please excuse my ignorance but what are HID's?

None. 2014 Spark EV 1LT - leased on July 3, 2013 ;)

The following is from section 9-33 of the owner's manual: Plug-In Charging This section explains the process for charging the high voltage battery. Do not allow the vehicle to remain in temperature extremes for long periods without being driven or plugged in. It is recommended that the vehicle...

Yep, I know exactly what you mean, I posted about this when I first got my Spark EV: http://www.mychevysparkev.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=3421 This is just how the brakes work, not the most elegant design but there is nothing wrong per se with the braking system.

You can just turn the car on again and shut right back off to display the last trip information. I forget to look sometimes as well. :)

Here's a look at my HOV stickers, I followed the DMV instructions as close as possible but with the way the rear wheels are pushed out so close to the rear end, there is not a lot of space for the large stickers. But no matter where they are placed they don't look so good, oh well... ;)

Four and half days and $1770 later (paid in full by State Farm of the person who hit me) I got my Spark EV back and it looks as good as new. BTW, State Farm also paid for the gas used in my rental car as I asked them to since I would not be paying for gas if I was driving my Spark. :D

Hilarious! :lol:

Gra, excellent recap, well done.
