The shifter had been replaced (or repaired?) for an earlier Shift to Park failure per TSB 23-NA-119. The dealer kept the BECM as a core.  I have pictures of the core.  The dealer or GM should have that core.  The above described warning lamps and messages and systems first appeared at the time of the event that lead me to take it other dealer ASAP.  Note the condition and model year is described in GM special coverage letter \"N232432680 Battery Energy Control Module Malfunction\".  NHTSA investigation PE23022 lead to this coverage letter.  Per GM, while my vehicle experienced the conditions and is in the model year coverage of the letter, its VIN is not covered.  I think NHTSA should re-open the investigation and consider a recall.  There could be other VINS susceptible this failure condition.  There could be operators of those VINs who cannot afford the expense (~$3000 or more) or downtime of the repair, and will keep operating the vehicle, putting people at risk again.  If a recall is not supportable, I'd request that the VIN list be expanded to cover all possible defective BECMs.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2017","productMake":"CHEVROLET","productModel":"VOLT","manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC"}]},{"odiNumber":11707875,"manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"10/14/2025","dateComplaintFiled":"12/30/2025","vin":"1G1RB6S54HU","components":"POWER TRAIN,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM","summary":"On 10/14, I was driving the car to my job, when the car suddenly switched from its electric battery power to its internal combustion engine.

Specifically, the automatic locking retractor (ALR) mechanism failed and would not release tension, even after fully retracting the strap. The cut portion of the seatbelt is still in my possession and can be made available for inspection upon request.  Safety Risk: This failure posed a serious safety risk. The seatbelt had been secured around a child car seat base, and once it locked, it would not release. After more than 30 minutes of troubleshooting \u2014 including fully retracting the belt and manually pressing the emergency release button inside the seat \u2014 it still would not disengage. The car seat base could not be repositioned or removed safely, which would have compromised the proper installation of a child safety seat. With no other option to ensure safe transport, I was forced to cut the seatbelt free.  The problem has not yet been reproduced or officially diagnosed by a dealer or independent service center. I have not yet reported it to GM or visited a dealership, but I plan to do so soon. The component has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, or insurance representatives at this time. However, this closely mirrors recall 18V673000, especially since that recall affected Volt models 2018-2019 and mine is a 2017.  There were no warning lamps, dashboard messages, or advance symptoms before the failure occurred. The seatbelt functioned normally until it was engaged with the car seat, at which point the retractor locked and failed to release.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2017","productMake":"CHEVROLET","productModel":"VOLT","manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC"}]},{"odiNumber":11672431,"manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"07/10/2025","dateComplaintFiled":"07/10/2025","vin":"1G1RC6S54HU","components":"POWER TRAIN","summary":"The contact owns a 2017 Chevrolet Volt.

Aftermath: We were unable to restart the car despite multiple attempts.     Resolution: It took two hours and assistance from neighbors to push the car back to our driveway.  Upon researching this issue, I discovered that other 2017 Chevrolet Volt owners have reported similar symptoms, which appear to be related to Battery Energy Control Module (BECM) failures. Furthermore, I found that GM issued Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) 18-NA-261 addressing \"an internal issue within the Battery Energy Control Module\" for Volt models. This incident has raised serious concerns about the safety and reliability of our vehicle. I am requesting immediate attention to this matter, including:      A thorough inspection and repair of our vehicle     Information on any recalls or extended warranties related to this issue     Assurance of the vehicle's safety for future use  Given the potential danger posed by sudden power loss while driving, I believe this issue warrants urgent attention and possibly a wider recall.

The vehicle's OBD Codes were scanned at a nearby auto parts store resulting in 30 DTC appearing. I found hundreds of complaints and posts about the F3UA fuse blown and a faulty EGR valve. A service bulletin for this issue was published by GM in Feb 2023. I notified the dealership of the issues and the vehicle was brought to Deacon Jones Chevy of Clinton, NC on July 16th. The service department informed me that the 12V Battery was bad and needed replacement to \"correct\" the issue, at a cost nearly $550. I asked if the fuse mentioned was blown and was informed that it was not. The check engine light was cleared and my daughter drove home. Before getting home, the check engine light came back on, the temperature spiked, and \"propulsion power is reduced.\" message appeared. This was accompanied again by a rapid reduction in speed nearly causing a collision. I called the dealership back and informed them of the incident.

Prior to this there had been no indication that anything was wrong. The warning was quite vague and it wasn\u2019t at all clear what it actually meant so I continued driving. Shortly after this, I began to notice a bit of a \u201cchuggle\u201d or lurching sensation (particularly on hills). This made the acceleration slightly unpredictable, and at one point even triggered the forward collision warning when the car accelerated a bit after I took my foot off the gas pedal (coming up behind another car at a traffic light). I pulled over and attempted to figure out what the issue was. I had a notice regarding the BECM recall in my glove box which listed a reduced power mode as a potential symptom, so I scheduled a service appointment (figuring it was that) and continued my trip. I stopped to get gas, then a mile or two down the road the engine overheated and shut off. By sheer luck I had a few miles of range left in electric mode which allowed me to pull over safely, but I was now stranded over 100 miles from home.  I managed to get the vehicle to a dealership in Danvers, MA where they diagnosed the problem as a failed EGR valve. My understanding is this is related to a defect in the valve electronics.The valve failed and blew the F3 fuse, which also supplies power to the engine cooling system. It doesn\u2019t take long for the engine to overheat and it seems this can lead to a complete loss of power while driving when the electric range is already depleted.  The valve is currently unplugged while I await a replacement but there is no word on how long that might be. Other Volt owners have had to wait months or even years to get a new valve. The repair quote I received is also unreasonably expensive (> $4,000). I failed my state emissions inspection and am in the process of applying for a waiver. Given how common this is, I'm surprised this isn't already a recall.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2017","productMake":"CHEVROLET","productModel":"VOLT","manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC"}]},{"odiNumber":11606744,"manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"08/05/2024","dateComplaintFiled":"08/06/2024","vin":"1G1RC6S51HU","components":"POWER TRAIN,ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM","summary":"While making a 90 mile drive on 7/20, after having depleted the primary battery charge and switched to hybrid mode, a \"propulsion power is reduced\" warning appeared on the console, along with the Check Engine Light.

The car was pulled over to the side of the road and towed home.   Upon inspection of the Chevy Volt  later, the F03 15 amp mini-fuse(referred to as non-walk home fuse) in the main engine fuse block had blown, which had likely caused the electronically controlled thermostat to close and the engine to quickly overheat, due to lack of coolant.  The reason why the F03 15 amp mini-fuse blew is because the control board for the EGR valve catastrophically failed and overloaded the fuse of this important shared electrical circuit. The electronic thermostat is part of this shared circuit, in addition to the EGR valve and possibly other important vehicle functions. I consider this cascade of electronic and engine/cooling failures to be a safety issue for the driver, in addition to being a poor design.  As GM doesn't currently have any replacement EGR valves for our 2017 Chevy Volt, which includes the EGR valve control board, we are forced to disconnect the EGR valve from the vehicle and replace the F03 15 amp mini-fuse, in order to make the car drivable. This is contributing to increased vehicle emissions and reduced vehicle efficiency.   In locations with emissions inspections, this EGR valve parts shortage results in the vehicle failing inspection and being made undrivable.   I think the NHTSA should force GM to recall any 2nd generation Chevrolet Volt vehicles that have this defective EGR valve/control board, due to its cascading effect on the safe operation of the Volt.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2017","productMake":"CHEVROLET","productModel":"VOLT","manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC"}]},{"odiNumber":11578545,"manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"11/24/2023","dateComplaintFiled":"03/20/2024","vin":"1G1RD6S5XHU","components":"ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM","summary":"On [XXX] my 2017 Chevrolet Volt with just 24,000 miles on it suddenly jerked/lost power/revved up while on the highway while using the gas engine--frightening/dangerous -- and continued to do that until I got to my destination.

Early to mid November 2022 the check engine light appeared on the dash. It was determined the EGR valve needed to be replaced. I took the vehicle to Ferman Chevy Tampa on 11/21/2022. They replaced the EGR valve and we paid $1346.07 for the work completed.  Then late December 2022 - Early January 2023 the check engine light appeared once again on the dash. It was determined that the EGR valve placed in the vehicle was a faulty part and the volt needed a new EGR valve.  We waited approximately 1 month for the repair.  Early November 2023 the check engine light came on once again. After inspection it was determined that once again a faulty EGR valve was placed in the vehicle.  This is the 3rd time the same issue has occurred in a year.  Today is Monday 2/26/2024 and volt has yet to be repaired, that is nearly 3 months!  Apparently the part is not available and GM has no idea when it will be available. We were recently told possibly 2025. My husband came across some information stating that 1,600 people are currently waiting for an EGR valve for their Chevy Volt and that 2,000 have been ordered, but no one knows when they will arrive and after 3 EGR valvles going bad in one year even if the part becomes available I don't know if that will fix the problem or if it will just happen again. The car is inoperable for any long distance driving. We paid $26,431.83 for this vehicle a little over a year ago and its basically inoperable with solution from Chevy or GM. Aside from this issue I love my Chevy Volt. Its actually the 3rd one I have owned, but this is not fair to me as the consumer when they cannot reslove the issue.

These issues pose significant risks to my safety and that of others on the road.  On January 18th, 2024, I brought my vehicle to the Provo Utah Chevrolet dealer after experiencing reduced propulsion power while driving on the highway, coupled with the illumination of the check engine light. The mechanic performed a quick inspection and used a GM scan tool to diagnose the issue, revealing the code P1E00 for the Hybrid Powertrain Control Module 2, which was cleared without a thorough investigation. I was advised to return if the issue reoccurred.  Despite the reset, the problem persisted, and on February 9th, 2024, I scheduled another appointment due to my Chevy Volt's High Voltage battery charging only to 65% capacity despite indicating a full charge. However, upon arriving for the appointment at 4:00 PM, I was informed that the hybrid mechanic had left for the day, and I was asked to return on another day.  Subsequently, on February 11th, 2024, the check engine light illuminated again, and on February 12th, 2024, while driving to work, I experienced a loss of propulsion power on the highway, placing my safety at risk.  These ongoing issues with propulsion power and the high-voltage battery charging system are not only inconvenient but also potentially dangerous. Despite multiple visits to the dealership and attempts to diagnose and resolve the problem, it persists, indicating a systemic issue that requires immediate attention.  I urge the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to investigate this matter thoroughly to ensure the safety of Chevy Volt drivers and passengers.

We then attempted to start the car and it displayed a warning that no key fob was present (but there was a key fob in the car). A few minutes later the car started and we were able to drive it to a service center where error codes were captured. Afterwards, the car drove as normal, and later even the amber Check Engine light was extinguished. The service center explained this could be an intermittent problem where the car will suddenly throw the error message (\"low propulsion\") and the car will have to be pulled to the side of the road. It will be a few weeks before the service center can do any work on the car. Since the car may start and drive, but suddenly find its speed reduced to far below the speed limit, the car can no longer be safely operated.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2017","productMake":"CHEVROLET","productModel":"VOLT","manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC"}]},{"odiNumber":11559657,"manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"11/27/2023","dateComplaintFiled":"12/12/2023","vin":"1G1RC6S53HU","components":"ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM","summary":"While driving to work, the vehicle shook a bit and entered into \"reduced propulsion mode\".

This has resulted in overheating of the brake caliper, rotor, and wheel.  Typically the car can be driven again without issue after two hours of cool-off time.  This phenomenon has occurred during both battery/electric and gasoline engine operation of the plug-in hybrid car.  There are no instrument indications of a brake malfunction when it happens.  It first becomes perceptible as a pulsation through the steering wheel and requires increased throttle pedal pressure to maintain speed.  I brought the car to my local Chevrolet dealer after the first two of these incidents.  Their first recommendation was a new set of tires to remove the influence of one mismatched tire.  The new tires did not resolve the issue, and the dealer has not performed any other corrective action beyond a recommendation to replace calipers and rotors.  Due to the intermittent nature of the failure and the fact that it affects both of the front brakes, I believe this is an ABS system issue and not a caliper/rotor issue, and I have not replaced those parts yet.  The car's adaptive cruise control does not work properly.  It almost always fails to set and shows \"Adaptive Cruise Temporarily Unavailable\" regardless of road conditions.  This condition is intermittent and is not reproducible on demand.  This condition is dangerous because it overheats the brake, wheel, and steering components.  The heat may have damaged the wheel bearing, steering components, and CV joints.  The heat also creates a risk of sudden wheel and/or tire failure while driving.  The unexpected application of the brakes affects vehicle response to throttle and steering inputs, and has the potential to reduce driver control of the vehicle.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2017","productMake":"CHEVROLET","productModel":"VOLT","manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC"}]},{"odiNumber":11515868,"manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"04/06/2023","dateComplaintFiled":"04/06/2023","vin":"1G1RB6S57HU","components":"STEERING","summary":"While driving down the freeway, the steering starting chattering.

With this error message the vehicle will not turn off and the car cannot be secured properly (both of which are a safety concern).  Our vehicle has less than 30K miles on it so it should not be a case of normal wear and tear causing the problem.  GM has not issued a recall for this defect yet but we see there are several class action law suits looking to force them to do so.  We also note that a number of consumers have reported the error progressing so that it occurs while the vehicle is in operation causing the driver to have to pull to the side of the road when transmission operation ceases.  Chevrolet released document ID 5403533 on December 11, 2020, Bulletin #19-NA-206 due to the frequency of this defect detailing the parts needed to effect repairs for several models of Chevrolet.  We have discussed this issue with our local Chevrolet dealer and they concur the vehicle should be repaired ASAP to avoid the progression of switch failure in the vehicle.  Since the car is out of warranty and in the absence of a manufacturer's recall that will cost approximately $310.

My car had stopped with no way of moving on a 55 mph 2 lane highway.  We were at risk of cars not seeing my hazards and hitting us from behind.  We had to push the car across the right lane to get it off the road.  We had two cars stop to help direct traffic away from us while we pushed it to safety.

Chevrolet knows this as well as the dealerships.  I have read many other stories of people being left stranded because of this.  Chevy covers it under warranty.

I would push the start button.  Shift into gear and shift again into park. In the beginning that solved the problem.  But the car did not fully shut down when the error message is displayed.  If the door is opened, the signal that the engine is running beeps.  I took it to the dealer service department .  They kept the car for a day to diagnose the problem but did not get the error message.  But as the problem was intermittent, it continued.  I returned the car to the dealer and they said they made an adjustment that should resolve the problem.  It didn't.  The problem became constant and I could not shift into park.  The car did not fully shut off and I couldn't lock it.  I returned the car to the dealer and it was there for several days while they waited for a new shifter.  It was on their EV charger full time so as to not drain the battery.  The shifter was replaced in February 2019.  I thought this was a random incident but found out it is not.  In July 2021 the same problem returned.  I called 2 dealers for an appointment and have to wait 3 weeks for an appointment.  I looked online for solutions and to see if others had the same experience.  I found many postings and comments with screenshots of the same error message and cars not turning off.  It seems to be a defect affecting the Volt and other GM cars of the same age.  I had an appointment at lunch 8/3/21 and after several tries to engage the parking gear, the car still would not turn off.  I had to leave it running in the parking lot for 30 minutes and it would not lock.  The car shut off normally when I returned to the office.

The temperature of my coolant began to rise over 230 F & then 240. Miles from my destination, I reduced speed & took the next exit to stop for fuel and read my owners manual.
