We are having the following issues with our 2012 Chevy Volt with about 49k miles.
Received the following OBD Codes with a MIL/CEL Light on the dashboard. The MIL/CEL goes off by itself then comes back. We have not cleared the codes, we wanted to make sure they were available for the service department.
P1E00 - Generic something is wrong type of code
P1E92 - Hybrid/EV Battery Interface Control Module 1 Cell Balancing Circuit
P0A9C - Hybrid/EV Battery Temperature Sensor 1 Performance
We are also receiving an intermittent "Battery too cold, Plug in to warm” message on the dash display. From what I understand this message is only supposed to come on in extremely cold weather (negative temperatures) if at all.
In my opinion all this adds up to a battery module being replaced (at least).
We live in the Florida Keys.
I have been to Kieth Pierson Chevy in Florida City. They completely neglected the problem and instead wanted to replace my wipers, cabin air filter, rear hubs, etc. Which I had already done myself. Realizing they were gouging me we just went and picked the car up.
Now we are at Niles Chevy in Key West. We went there because they had let us know they had a Volt technician. Well they determined a portion of the battery needs to be replaced, but they do not have the equipment to do it. So, now they are trying to brush us off and are telling us to come pick up the car. We have opened up a case with GM, but their sense of urgency is a fraction of ours.
I always read this forum but haven't posted because I get so much through the search function. But I am at a loss here. What do I do now? I just want my car repaired (under the still active warranty) and back in my driveway.
Thanks in advance for any help/insight you can provide.
