My app is not updating the fuel % and mileage left.
The vehicle fuel and mileage is not updating on my app. I have tried every troubleshooting method posted on the internet and spoken to a few folks at gmc customer service, no luck.
it's been like this since the start. Not sure what the fix is

I have been on the phone with so many, and have several case numbers. I have tried the following and it still has not updated anything for 2 days, and the fuel level has never worked.
1. Turn ignition on for at least 2 minutes
2. Turn ignition off and wait 2-5 minutes (so data can be collected)
3. Log out of the myChevrolet app and log back in - this may help the app refresh
4. If the concern is still not resolved, please wait 2-3 minutes and refresh the app again, as the status can take a few minutes to update
5. Drive the vehicle around for a few minutes to allow data to refresh on the app- Advisor_SaraModerator

We appreciate your connection and regret to hear that your mileage and percentage full have not been updated, @Ak1229. Your comments are important to us, and we aim for you to have the best possible experience with your Encore GX. As an initial troubleshooting step, we recommend uninstalling and reinstalling your mobile app, even if you have done so already. This helps to ensure you have the most updated version for top performance. From there, perform a global refresh by pulling down from the top of the screen when in the Vehicle Status feature. If you are in contact with OnStar parties already, please continue working closely with the agent in any existing case you have. They will remain in prime position to provide you with available information and help surrounding your remaining concerns. We are happy to investigate the status of your situation and offer any added support we may be able to.

I got my 2027 Bolt a week ago. The app has never connected to the vehicle. I spent more than an hour with 4 reps last week and tried all the standard scripted solutions over and over. I've gone through the same activities on my own repeatedly. I discovered a clue in that under vehicle to phone sharing, no phone is listed. I emailed the tech with a photo, only to get a bounce back saying that the case has been closed. WHY would they close the case when it wasn't resolved. This is pretty frustrating.
I called again yesterday and spoke to a young lady who was very nice and apologized. We went through the same troubleshooting that I had already done REPEATEDLY. She told me we would leave it there and I was to check it in an hour because she was pretty sure what she had done on her end would fix it. It did not. I guess I will keep calling, because I'm sure they closed my case again. I am very disappointed and frustrated with OnStar.
