“I ran into a vehicle in front of me during normal traffic on my way home from work, two months to the day of picking up my 2018 VOLT. The vehicle ahead of me may have stopped quickly, but it was not a stop the VOLT shouldn't have been able to handle. I was on a street in my neighborhood I drive every day in traffic. I had mentioned to friends and family that the VOLT's brakes just did not feel on par with the rest of the car and would be the only aspect of this EV experience I found lacking. I have the dated text messages to prove this. …”
