MyChev App
Having similar issues for a few weeks where everything on the app works fine (lock and unlock features) except the charge status on the equinox ev? I have the latest version of the app and have ensured the car has excellent wifi coverage (in garage right beside a wifi router). Tried to logout/in , uninstalled the app and reinstalled. Currently the car shows its charged at 100% updated 5days ago. Any advice is welcomed to resolve this issue?
Thanks
