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?

Bumper to bumper. Even though it has "Voltec" on it, it is NOT covered under the Voltec drivetrain warranty.

You might be able to convince a franchised dealership to replace it, and you might be able to get a Volt Advisor to get it replaced. However, it isn't covered under the extended Voltec warranty.

Not true. It's been discussed many times on here and a majority have gotten the EVSE replaced under the voltec warranty.

That's because they convinced a dealership or a Volt Advisor to do it. This has been covered and verified on the FB group by the guy that runs the page. Just because a few people got theirs replaced after the B2B ran out, does not mean it will work for everyone.
