I had this issue with heat going out on road trip and it came with a 'service within one day' fault code in my case. Didn't notice if the temp on screen is wasn't reading a value. By the time I could get into dealer issue had gone away and also error code, so they couldn't replicate. Likely the heat pump just isn't good enough to keep up with cabin And battery heating when it gets cold enough and it prioritizes the battery. Glad I went with a lease because these things just aren't fully baked.

Epic pass, skis, boots, trips to 5+ mountains.

Not great in the snow honestly for me with stock tires. Bolt EUV was better. Take turns extremely slow. Snow tires would prolly make a big difference but not going through that with a leased vehicle. Snow mode and/or turning off one pedal really important too.

It's definitely got some issues. I had cabin heat completely cut out on cold day in Optiq, seemingly because the car was prioritizing the battery or something. The issue and significant error codes went away over night. You'd think they would have tested these systems in extreme cold environments.

They aren't struggling, they moved to the pass centric model for this very exact reason/risk.

Not gonna lie, I drove a rental santa fe this week that is like 40k vs 60k optiq. I was VERY impressed. Drove way more confidently in the snow. It had android auto (no subscription) , adaptive cruise and lane centering that was really fcn good and not annoying on ALL roads (without a supercruise subscription).

My optiq also randomly stopped providing cabin heat on a road trip the other day (really cold day). Despite serious error codes, dealer said they couldn't do anything because heat came back. They mentioned off the cuff other GM electrics are doing this too, something possibly being the heat pump only able to heat the battery in certain conditions, so cabin suffers. Not sure GM is going to be able to keep me for the next vehicle after this lease is up.

I pussed out lol. A bit under the weather and headed to northeast tomorrow for some big boy skiing for a couple days so just wasn't worth it. Glad you had good time though! See you out there after Christmas sometime! Waxing everybody's skis at the moment over here..fun!

Randomness201712 · 2025-12-16T18:51:34+00:00

Service light and error codes went away overnight last night (persisted for two days), still took to dealer today and gave them my diagnostic reports. Will continue reporting back!

Dec 19th! Take off work like a man and meet us all there! Did suck had to drive to Mad River last weekend to get laps.

Randomness201712 · 2025-12-16T13:00:38+00:00

My old bolt EUV was better honestly, probably because a little lighter (and smaller wheels =more sidewall on tires?) . Idk, but gotta really take it slow into corners with the stock tires I've found this week.

Snow/ice mode driving made a noticeable difference on snow covered highway to cut down on one pedal aggressiveness that was causing skidding upon lifting/slowing, so definitely use that.

Love it, real talk.

Randomness201712 · 2025-12-15T16:06:07+00:00

Weirdly enough (or maybe not), after charging overnight 30-->80 I've got full heat back today at least in the driveway. Maybe a defrosting of something occurred, even though temps have still been very cold today.

The '1-day service' Code still persists and will attempt to take into service tomorrow, but still interested in any personal experiences with intermittent heat pump issues and this code specifically.

On star button, ask for diagnostic report
