I have a 2012 Volt with 81,000 miles on it. My 110V charger is doing the "blown fuse" thing, no lights no matter what outlet you try.

I've seen both on the forums -- so which warranty applies to the Voltec charger that comes with the car?

My dealer won't say whether something is covered until they diagnose it. Since I have a L2 charger at home and work, I haven't taken anything in to them yet -- but holiday travel season is approaching...

If it's not a covered item, I'm not going to pay dealer prices for a replacement.

Should it be covered? Any tips on what to say or do to make the process easier?

I used the GM supplied one daily (or more to say nightly). I decided to go with a level 1 clippercreek 120v unit as I charge at night mostly. I noticed when I opened up my very out of warranty GM charger, there was signs of noticeable internal corrosion. This vehicle was a CPO that was ALLEGEDLY garaged its early years of ownership.

As for relying on Chevrolet, (GM) for any assistance on this, GOOD LUCK. Longtime domestic and import vehicle owner my tip is DIY and SAVE.
