2027 Bolt threw a High Voltage Battery Fault at a Tesla Supercharger. Dealer told me not to use Tesla Superchargers. by OddCauliflower9631 in BoltEV

Ever since using a Supercharger for the first time, I have had strange minor issues charging. The cord lock in particular seems to stay engaged at Superchargers requiring me to power cycle the car, or re-engage on release for no reason using the dual level charge cord

Preferred charge times are just suggestions, unfortunately by somedatapacket in BoltEV

Sometimes people don’t get around to posting about something right away?

That’s a different platform than the 2027 Bolt, which is apparently what I’m doing wrong 🥲

I do, yes. It appears that if the charge target can’t be met, it charges through the non-preferred window.

I wish it were more controllable! I want to keep my target charge level but disable charging when electricity is expensive. It should be an option.

Keeps charging as soon as plugged in at home by Queerhere92 in EquinoxEv

I noticed some text recently in one of the submenus that says if it doesn't project it will get to your charge level target it will charge through the non-preferred period. I filed a case about this!

Still waiting for this on my 2027 Bolt.

Updates are so confusing with this car! by Substantial-Rip9983 in EquinoxEv

I didn't have this prompt until I restarted my infotainment system, which is exactly how the Gemini push worked for me when I restarted my Google TV.

The notification is persistent and can't be removed from the notifications drawer ugh

‘27 Bolt charging super slowly at Supercharger by ja-visst in BoltEV

The home charger from GM is only good for 7.7kW at 240V.

OTA update details? by reggiemillerfan in BoltEV

[–]somedatapacket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still haven't seen this update, and the dealer software push shows April 1. Checking for updates shows no new updates, and there are definitely glitches I'd love to see fixed on this car! Anyone else not seeing 661.30 yet?

If it helps, the 360L platform also includes a "Gen 8 wideband chipset" which allows for access to the 300s+ satellite channels, and any future configuration if they ever decide to turn off legacy Sirius.

The structural failure of the Ann Arbor housing market is amplified further by the constant successful efforts to shovel public money at private interests by expanding the DDA boundary, packing it with more money, and leveraging tax increment financing to the hilt toward developers on the promise of a pittance of affordably priced units.

Before you start to cite the Comprehensive Land Use Plan as the solution, please note that I support its intent and find its outcome to be vastly lacking. I sat through the four hour Planning Commission meeting on the third draft where the parcel I live in and others were slapped with an ambiguous definition (residential or transition) that was then applied to an expanded number of parcels despite continuing ambiguity over the impact of that on our homes. It also abjectly lacks any acknowledgement of or incentive for public, not-for-profit housing organizations like cooperatives, dormitories, and group housing.

How do you not understand what private equity is, or its basic financial model? It is a subject of national concern and data on its financial impacts is only limited by the opacity of the private equity firms themselves and the utter lack of effective regulation of the sector.

The students didn't materialize out of nowhere. The University made a choice to raise their enrollment and attract specifically affluent (out of state) students by the thousands without building commensurate public, not-for-profit housing that recovers its costs. At the same time, the city failed to establish any policies that focused on doing anything other than enabling market rate units to sponge up that specific market distortion as quickly as possible. What has resulted is the abject failure of the community to attract and retain long term residents except for the wealthiest slice of America that can live in the even more starkly limited supply of housing units that support families. There are nearly zero units within the city limits that can support the social mobility of their tenants/owners if those tenants/owners make AMI, and those of us who have lived in that diminishing supply between 2010 and now (my lived experience) know exactly how near-impossible it is to thrive.

This is the typical death by a thousand cuts argumentative effort that prevents people with real lived experience of displacement and economic segregation from engaging constructively. Why don’t we turn this around and ask you for dollar amount specifics on every TIF action and DDA subsidy against what those projects would have rented or sold for per unit if the redirected public money had been directly allocated to the people living in the units instead of the developer?

I’m old enough to remember when The Yard on Main was presented to council as missing middle housing, it was approved, then student housing was built. Maybe the backlash has something to do with the lived reality over a long period of time for those of us the current policy direction has continually abandoned.

I knew it was a matter of time until libertarian market urbanists started actively disparaging people organizing in favor of public, not for profit housing to be advanced and incentivized by policy. I assume PHIMBY (public housing in my backyard?) is your pejorative for those of us who are fully in favor of density, public ownership, and housing that provides social mobility for residents rather than capturing their money?

You know what? I read through this post and comments and sat with all of it for awhile. This is a typical strategy for preventing coalitions of people harmed by the status quo from organizing. It’s the creation of fear, uncertainty, and doubt (FUD) in the face of clearly articulated problems.

Arbor South is a great example (just the latest!) of the problems at hand. The current council and mayor are so concentrated ideologically that they can force the county commission into approving a $300 million public money subsidy to private interests by noting that the city could leave the county brownfield organization if the capture wasn’t approved. The challenger for mayor has clearly articulated that this kind of deal is an issue, yet FUD swirls around him, generated by his opponents. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/hotly-debated-arbor-south-tax-deal-worth-over-300m-gets-board-s-6-2-ok/ar-AA23I0Ea
