While everyone on the team drives a plug-in vehicle, both Erin and Michael – who both rent houses — own plug-in hybrids in the form of the second and first generation Chevrolet Volts, respectively.
But over the weekend, Michael’s Volt started to experience some very bizarre behavior. And with rent prices continually on the rise, he’s worried about the potential for a huge repair bill that might be difficult to stomach…
Can we help him and fix it without a trip to the dealer?
