A couple weeks ago, while transitioning from battery to ICE on the highway, the ICE failed to come on (plenty of gas) and my 2013 Volt went into reduced power mode. Long story short, it never ran again. Dealer said total battery failure when checking all three modules. Car has 107K so Chevy refused to assist on replacement costs ($10,000). Regional service manager apparently got no joy from "Chevy HQ". Car value is now zero. Do I have any options? I love the car...

As others have said, you may want to try a different dealer. It sounds like they either don't know what they're doing, or they're trying to rip you off. Also, try sending a message to GM Social Media here. They can sometimes help.

What state are you in?
