    Anyone have an extra remote fob they would sell?

    My second question is whether anyone knows if these things can be repaired. The "unlock" button finally broke off, just like the first fob I had. Otherwise it works okay, though if I lock the car and unlock with the manual key, the alarm goes off until I start the car.

    No more Bluetooth?

    Thread 'Bluetooth no longer connecting?' https://www.mychevysparkev.com/threads/bluetooth-no-longer-connecting.9494/ I should have started my thread here, not the news forum. (I’ll delete the original if I find a way.) Among the many niggly things that I've come to accept (door locks gone wild...

    Bluetooth no longer connecting?

    Among the many niggly things that I've come to accept (door locks gone wild, tire pressure sensor fail, etc.), I've not yet asked the forum about this one. About a year ago, I lost bluetooth connectivity with my iPhone and it simply will not reconnect. Anyone else have this issue? I've assumed...

    Funky key fob activity (2016)

    I know this forum is rife with junk spam, so I am not holding my breath about getting replies to this, but, what the heck, here goes. I've been having some strange activity with my door locks. Specifically, and the most common of the oddities, when I go to unlock the door it springs back...

    SPAM posts Taking Over SparkEV Forum

    That’s it, that’s the news. And unless the mods can somehow fix this, it’s not worth getting the stream of email notifications.

    Won't turn off and cannot drive. ??

    First time this has happened, but this morning my 2015 got all weird on me. The main problem now is that it will not turn off. It appears to turn off, but then starts up with the "Initializing...Wait to Shift" then the screen starts up, but despite allowing the shift to move to D, R, etc., it...

    Hood replacement

    Been awhile since I've hung out here, and have overall really been enjoying my SparkEV (bought mine January 1, 2015). Some time back I had a tree limb fall on the hood and dent it some—not so bad that I couldn't live with it for a while. When I first checked, I could find no replacement parts...

    $7500 tax credit question

    Well, I've been enjoying my Spark EV now for just over a year. Now I'm faced with getting about $4500, maybe less, in fed tax credit. Can anyone confirm that 1) it remains that you must take the credit the same year you purchased the car, and 2) you cannot spread the credit over two years. I ask...

    tire pressure readings

    I bought a digital pressure gauge but it differs from the dashboard tire pressure readings by about 4 pounds (over). Anyone have a sense of how accurate the tire pressure system is, or is not?

    Spark EV Recall? Battery Energy Control Module Reprogramming

    I took my car into the dealer for the 7500 tire rotation (note on THAT near miss, below) and was told at check in that there was a recall notice for my car, a required service update to "reprogram the battery energy control module on certain 2015 model Spark EVs. In these vehicles, a software...

    Modification to feed smart phone sound through speakers?

    No, not iTunes—I know the radio will play the music loaded in my music library. I'm talking about apps that generate music (for example). Is there some sort of tweak that will deliver all sounds besides music library and phone calls through the speakers? I would have considered subscribing to...

    Today I met the Governor! He said "Whoa..."

    Caught me by surprise...not that I was wanting to push it further.

    Any other Spark EV owners out in the Inland Empire?

    I know I'm not the sole representative out here. Anyone else on this forum? I'm in Redlands, btw.

    L went missing for awhile, huh?

    I've had my Spark for 2 months now. I've not read about this, but I hope it's something that the car simply does [to protect the batteries from overcharging]. My drive to work climbs 3000 feet. I can get two trips (35+ miles round trip) before having to charge for another work commute. This...

    8A, 12A, 16A, ?

    Okay, someone edify me, please. For 120V charging the Spark EV two options: 8A and 12A. Could Chevy have configured two options for L2 as well? Say, 16A and 24A.

    Leasing vs Buying...another factor worth talking about

    It takes a bunch of energy to make a car, right? I'm curious if anyone who's leasing considers the carbon cost of stepping into a new car every three years vs driving the car for 10 or more years. After all, at least for some of us, part of why we're investing in this ev is to reduce our carbon...
