cars have become too complex and dangerous for consumers and third parties to handle.
While I certainly don't support them - I do understand their viewpoint. An electric car will fry you if you touch it in the wrong spot while trying to work on the electrical or motor system. There are only a handful of qualified GM technicians in the entire country that can work on the Volt. They will tow the car across entire states, for free, to those specific technicians. Electric/hybrid cars do bring a significant issue about 3rd party and DIY repair and safety. Aside from who is actually qualified to fix those systems - electrical is a lot different than combustion.
