Questions About 2016 Chevrolet Spark EV Electric Systems
-
Is it more expensive to repair Chevrolet Spark EV electric vehicle systems? The truth is, it depends. Some high voltage components only come within a larger unit. Keep in mind that promotional financing is available through the Firestone credit card.* (*Subject to credit approval.)
-
How often should you replace Chevrolet Spark EV brakes? The best way to know is with a brake check. You also want to stay on top of your manufacturer suggested maintenance intervals for Chevrolet Spark EV brakes. Generally speaking, front brake pad wear may be significantly reduced in electric vehicles due to regenerative braking.
-
What do I do if my Chevrolet Spark EV dashboard warning light is on? A dashboard warning light means your Chevrolet Spark EV needs some sort of attention. There may also be a high voltage system warning light on. Visit Firestone Complete Auto Care for an electric vehicle diagnostic.
-
Why is my Spark EV leaking water? Electric cars use a receiver dryer assembly to help keep the A/C refrigerant free of contaminants, and this process can produce some condensation. When it’s warm outside, this condensation may drain under the vehicle. If you’ve been running the air conditioner in your Spark EV for some time, don’t be too concerned to find a bit of water under it. However, if you discover large amounts of water or any coolant leaking under your vehicle, you may have a problem with the cooling system or another component.

Local EV Service for 2016 Chevrolet Spark EV
Has your Chevrolet Spark EV been feeling a bit "off"? Maybe you've noticed slower acceleration, or it just doesn't feel as "peppy" as it once did. If so, Firestone technicians can conduct a no-charge* electric/hybrid vehicle check to get a better idea. Maybe there's a problem with your Spark EV’s high voltage cooling system -- if the high voltage battery is running too hot, it will reduce your battery's performance. Then again, it could be that your Spark EV has Diagnostic Trouble Codes stored in one of its electric modules. Firestone Complete Auto technicians are trained to provide low voltage and conventional services for all electric cars, including your 2016 Chevrolet Spark EV.
Select Firestone stores also offer advanced/high voltage services for electric cars like Chevrolet Spark EVs. A high voltage service is anything that requires removing the Chevrolet's high voltage, service/safety disconnect plug/switch, servicing any high voltage cables, the power inverter, the high voltage electric machines/motors, the high voltage battery pack, high voltage A/C compressor, etc. Call your local store before making an appointment to check if high voltage services are offered.
These are some of the high voltage electric vehicle services that may be offered at your location:
Electric vehicle diagnostic: A diagnostic is the next step we take after noting the symptoms your Chevrolet Spark EV is showcasing. This step will help us get to the bottom of the real problem. With those insights, a trained technician will further diagnose electric vehicle problems you're having and determine what tests (if any) are needed. No repairs are performed without your consent.
High voltage battery cooling inspection: The technician will closely examine the high voltage battery's filter and, if needed, clean the battery's ducts. (This applies to air-cooled high voltage batteries. Liquid-cooled or refrigerant-cooled high voltage batteries are inspected differently.)
High voltage cable inspection: The outer cable jackets and connectors on your 2016 Spark EV will be inspected and tested to ensure high voltage is NOT transferring to the chassis. Your technician will notify you if the cable is in need of replacement.
Isolation test: During this test, the technician will use a special tool to check for any high voltage components that are "leaking" electric energy to the chassis.
Remove and replace high voltage battery: Is your Chevrolet Spark EV's high voltage battery a goner? Electric vehicle batteries can sometimes fail sooner than expected in hotter climates or if you often use Level 3 fast-charging stations, since these chargers can heat the battery more. Let us install a new electric vehicle high voltage battery.
Health check for the power electronic systems: We'll check the electric drive machine(s)/motor(s), power inverter, and/or regenerative braking in your 2016 Chevrolet Spark EV.
These are only a few of the special electric car services that could be available at your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care. Call and ask!
