2011 Chevrolet Volt

GM Service Technical College provides Collision Repair Guides free of charge. Collision Repair Guides can be displayed in

a classroom as long as they are represented as GM information and are not modified in any way.

The Chevrolet Volt is a front-wheel drive, four-passenger electric vehicle with extended-range capability. The vehicle

is propelled exclusively by electric motors. The Volt uses high voltage energy that is stored in the high voltage battery

as its primary power source. However, once the battery capacity is reduced, the gasoline engine drives a generator

which produces electricity to power the vehicle.

The intent of this guide is to provide the collision repair technician information to properly handle and repair Chevrolet

Volt vehicles in the safest manner possible. This guide contains a general description of how the Chevrolet Volt vehicle

systems operate, identifies the location of the unique components, fuse blocks, and lifting locations. The guide also

describes methods of disabling the high voltage system and identifies cut zone information.

High Strength Steel

The Volt has been designed to protect the

occupant(s) during a collision. The body structure is

nearly 80% high strength steel. The occupant ‘s are

protected from front, rear and side impacts by a

structural cage created by the underlying vehicle

structural design. The following parts are for formed

using ultra high strength steel:

•Door Inner Reinforcement Beams

•Center Pillar Reinforcements

•Windshield Pillar Reinforcements

•Rocker Panel Reinforcements

•Rear Compartment Lower Rails

Additional crumple zones protect the occupant with

front, side and rear rails that are designed to crush in

a crash.

Potential damage area to

high voltage components.

The Volt battery has 360 volt

electrical potential at all

times. It is inside the center

tunnel and under the rear

seat area.

Vehicle CUT ZONES Potential damage area to high

voltage components. Side curtain air

bags and lift gate hold open struts.

WARNING: Do NOT cut into the vehicle

until the 12V electrical system has been

disabled. Cutting into the vehicle prior to

disconnecting and isolating the 12V

electrical energy sources may cause air bag

deployment resulting in serious injury.

Use caution when cutting in these areas:

•Center tunnel area or the area under

the rear seats. The 360 volt battery is

installed in this area.

•Roof rails near the lift gate hinge. Side

curtain air bag inflators and lift gate hold

open struts are located in this area

•Front seat back on the outboard area,

contains side air bags.

•B pillar near the rocker, contains the

seat belt retractor pretensioner. Note:

The outboard area of the front seat

lower frame houses an additional seat

belt pretentioner.

Welding

When Welding GM recommends

disconnecting the 12volt battery

and removing any modules If

welding with-in 12 inches or

300mm of them. GM also

recommends disabling the high

voltage system if welding with-in

12 inches or 300mm of the high

voltage battery

Paint Baking

General Motors does not recommend

baking the Volt vehicle for more then

40 minutes at 140° Fahrenheit or 60 °

Celsius. Damage to the high voltage

battery may occur.

To lift the vehicle on a hoist, use the

rocker outer panel weld flanges in each

corner of the vehicle.

Note: To avoid damage to the

vehicle, the hoist pads MUST not

contact the rocker panel moldings or the

under body air deflectors.

Lifting and Jacking

The Chevrolet Volt may be lifted using a service jack from a single location. To raise the right-front or left-front of the

vehicle, place the service jack pad under the rear mounting bracket of the front cradle. To provide sufficient clearance for

certain service jacks, it may be necessary to place ramps under the vehicle's front tires. To lift the rear of the vehicle,

place the service jack lift pad under the rear spring support.

Rear Lift Points.

Front Lift Points.

The Volt is equipped with eight air bags to protect the

occupant in front, rear, side and rollover crashes for

360° of protection.

The Volt is one of the few vehicles with knee air bags

which helps reduce injuries to the front occupant’s

legs.

Chevrolet Volt Air Bags

There are dual pretensioner

seatbelts that work together with

the air bag system to protect the

occupant in the event of a crash.

Seat Mounted Side

Air Bags

Driver and

Passenger Air Bags

Roof Rail

Air Bags

Knee Air Bags

The contactors within the high voltage battery are

commanded open whenever one or more airbags

deploy. This interrupts the 360 volt electrical system

and discontinues current flow through the high

voltage cables.

This vehicle is equipped with dual-stage air bags

and the appearance of deployed air bags does not

ensure all stages of the air bags have deployed.

Therefore, disabling 12 volt power is essential to

ensure personal safety even if the airbags in the

vehicle appear to have been deployed. After

disabling 12 volt power, wait 1 minute to allow any

un-deployed air bag reserve energy to dissipate.
