general problems of the 2015 Chevrolet Volt

A "service brakes" warning came up when I was parked in a parking lot and immediately afterwards the brakes stopped working when I was reversing in the parking lot and I almost backed up into another car. I had my car towed to paradise Chevrolet and they diagnosed the problem as a faulty "brake pressure modulator valve" (bpmv) that needs to be replaced. I saw that there is a recall for the 2012 chevy Volt for the same issue, faulty bpmv.

Driving 75mph with cruise control during moderate traffic on freeway about 30 minutes after starting the car, my Volt shut off. There was a jolt of the car that felt like strong breaking and my dash along with everything electrical shut off for about 2 seconds then kicked back on with "service theft deterent" on dash. I could not break or steer the vehicle. I had to come to a rolling stop on shoulder of freeway. Luckily I was in toll lane #1 next to the shoulder or I might have been in a wreck with other cars. I have a check engine light on now and a scheduled appointment at chevy dealer made prior to today for tomorrow. I have had an issue with my Volt not charging at home/work for a few weeks. No breakers pop, the vehicle just wont complete the charge. The battery was replaced a week ago, driven over 250 miles with new battery, and it is still not charging properly. I have no messages on my vehicle regarding battery, engine, etc. Just the check engine light lit up.

Brake petal went to floor and now very hard to press.

On may 13th, approx. 11:10am, clear and sunny 75f redondo beach, CA. I entered the Volt to back out down a downward sloping driveway. I powered my Volt up with foot on brake proceeded to shift the Volt in �r�. As soon as I released pressure on the brake pedal I started to move down the driveway and picking up speed. I applied pressure to the brake pedal,which felt mushy. And my Volt continued picking up speed and would not stop. I continued to apply the brakes, which felt very mushy, and the Volt continued and crossed the street and impacted the residence directly across to finally stop my Volt. The brakes felt extremely mushy extending about � to the floor but not completely to the floor. When this occurred, I was in battery mode but the engine was engaged and running at high rpm and heard by me and a passerby while the Volt was moving. I called aaa to pull me out. I was stuck on the tree and front steps. I called in the incident to my insurance company so I could start the claim and have a claim #. Police arrived 40 minutes later to take a report and give me a field sobriety test. That was a little embarrassing but glad it was done. Now it's documented that I was totally sober. I've read 1-or 2 threads regarding non-operating mushy brakes but nothing about a Volt in r coming down a slope and not being able to stop. I called on-star to see if they have a log of codes generated from my Volt within the last 24 hrs and was told no. I am very grateful that I did not hit another person, animal or vehicle while not being in control of a fast moving Volt crossing sidewalks and a residential street. I have contacted gm allegations and have a claim #. I am supposedly to receive a call by Monday the 19 to discuss next steps. Another thing the 2015 does not have a emergency brake but a parking brake which will not slow the vehicle down in an emergency situation.
