Does the car on mountainous terrain also run a heater? Or in Stop and Go commuter traffic, do you run the air conditioner a lot. Or do you sweat or freeze, keeping the heater off to go further? In stop and go traffic, is it realistically only 150k miles of wear? Anyway, wonder how much MPG drop you have running even a heater. I truly hate electric cars and especially shutting off the engine mode at every light. If I have to work an extra hour to pay for 2 tanks of gas, it’s completely worth it. No wires and nonsense to plug in.

You gave GM a chance at only 150.000 miles on it today. It's the first time you are spending any repair money 9 years later beyond normal maintenance. And likely used to boot when you bought it. Sorry about your abysmal luck. It’s really GM's fault losing their chance. All the free electric to charge the car at work daily commuting isn’t invested for a future repair now and then. Amazed. Why not buy another used one with low miles, same year? Run the miles up to 150k again. Sounds super cheap. That’s the key word it seems.
