Yes, most definitely!Is there suppose to be a cover on this opening inside the rear left storage compartment?

So far, I have not had a problem with bulging. The EVSE fit inside the compartment and the cover fits ok.Just picked up my 17 Premier. I find that the cover does not fit flush. It only has the bottom two tabs and the twist latch, but is still bulging. Nothing is being currently stored inside. Are there any other retention clips that are on your cover?

Does the latch lever have a bit of "stick on" felt padding to hold it tight against the surrounding panel? If not, it is supposed to. There was a thread here recently where someones cover kept coming open. It turned out his was missing the felt pad. I think a few turns of black cloth electrical tape around the lever would work just as well, if not better.Just picked up my 17 Premier. I find that the cover does not fit flush.

One, 120v EVSE, is included with the car.Just a quick question. Does the 2017 Volt, factory ordered, come with the 120V L1 Cable/Brick for free, or is it an add on?
Definitely going to try thisHere is my "partial fix" for the storage cover door problem:
-added 4 turns of black hockey tape to the opening lever paddle to give it more friction and thickness for tighter, quieter closure (it was loosening off by itself on bumpy roads)
- added a 2" long strip of 3/4" wide velcro tape to the upper rear of the cover as this region was not flush. It did not really fix the flushness much, but at least it is now a snug fit and no longer "flaps about".
- added a 1.5" strip of weatherstripping on the base of the two hooks at the bottom of the cover. Then wrapped the weatherstripping with two turns of black electrical tape. This gives the base of the cover a bit more friction and tighter fit.
