My apologies if this seems like a silly question. After many years of driving Volkswagens, we are very reluctant to wash our 2016 Volt unless we get a warm spell and it can be dried off - thoroughly. VW uses a rubber gasket around the doors that will freeze shut when wet on any day below 32 degrees due to the way the rubber gasket is open to the water and breeze. Also the door windows will freeze shut and refuse to open until a warm day. More than once we've had to crack out the hair dryers.
Now the Volt is dirty as can be and I seriously need to wash it (and dry it carefully) but don't want to make the mistake of assuming the doors or windows will work tomorrow. 12 degrees now and predicted to drop to only 1 degree by morning.
What about the charge port door ? Any and all advice welcome, thank you.
