The Volt has had three fire problems . 1. A test crash car that was used in a side impact test : then it was put outside fully charged for three weeks , they didnot follow the instruction in the manual to drain the batteries after a total . Then it was picked up with a fork lift and moved into there building to have further testing. 2. The owner was an electrial engineer that admitted he tamper with the wiring " to improve it " . 3. Its is under investigation at this time , but they found under gage wire at the plug at the owners home and the location of the plug is the origin of the fire. In todays Chicago Tribune Newspaper the Volts has the highest rating of satisfaction of 93 % buy owners, the highest of any car in the auto industry. It is the most advanted engineering in the world today. It is the first of its kind and improvements in this design will come . Why not go down to your Chevrolet dealer and drive one, then make your own opinion .
