Description of the problem | I was driving my 2 month old car with ~2300 miles on a busy highway at ~ 65 mph when suddenly the car loses power and the panel reads "shift to park". Luckily, i was able to maneuver the car (steering was still in tact) with the remaining speed to the side of the highway. However, had the highway been busier or if i had been on the far left lane, i don't think i would have been able to make it and would have created a dangerous situation on the highway. On the volt forum, others have also complained about this. The repair, though covered, took 3+ weeks at the dealership. From dealer printout "internal transmission prime notor(sic) internal failure p03af drive motor remove and replace with srta srta unit". |
