Started off with a full 101 miles of range. Drove 45 miles mostly down hill with 89 miles of range remaining when I reached my destination. Stopped at a restaurant on the way back with 23 miles remaining. When I returned to the car after eating, my range dropped from 23 miles down to 14 miles from just sitting in the parking lot. Assumed it was due to the heat 93 F.
While on a level portion of the freeway after only about a mile, my battery indicator suddenly jumped to a full battery with only 14 miles of range indicated. Then within seconds it dropped down to two yellow bars with only 8 miles left. Then back to a full battery with 13 miles left so I stopped at a level 2 charger.
I plugged the charger in and my dash indicator turned yellow and stayed that way. While plugged in, my range went from 4 miles up to 9 miles within 5 minutes. And then it went from 9 miles back down to 4 miles, all while the charger was plugged in. The dash indicator never turned green.
Then all of a sudden the dash gave a message saying "Unable to Charge". So I unplugged the charger and tried to limp home at 25 to 30 miles per hour. While driving downhill at this point, the regen never kicked in. Finally after about 5 miles, the car slowed to about 2 miles per hour. I pulled into a parking lot. And no matter what gear I put it in the car wouldn't budge.
Called Onstar and they said they would send a tow truck. After about 15 minutes I tried putting it back in gear and I had power again. I drove about another 2 miles and then the car rolled to a stop showing that I had 4 miles of range left with 200 feet left to my driveway. Called Onstar again and was towed home. Plugged my Level 2 charger in light on dash turns yellow and after about 5 minutes it turns off. Won't charge. Message on dash says. "Unable to charge"
I think the computer has lost its settings or who knows what. Will wait till next week to have car towed to dealer during business hours. I only have 2,700 miles on the car and bought it in February. My experience has been flawless until now ?
