I have a solution for you, and I was able to check the owner's manual for the 2017 Chevy Volt and it does clearly say that you're not supposed to use tire chains because of clearance issues; so you're absolutely correct and this does put you in kind of a bind. Fortunately I have a great solution for you- the ISSE Hybrid Snow Socks # TCH66. Snow socks are a great alternative for vehicles that do not have adequate clearance in the wheel well to safely install tire chains and they provide... view full answer...
When installing a The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4 inch # C11221 on a frame that the weld nuts are rusted out will require some special attention.
First you should spray a penetrating lubricant like WD40 into the nuts and allow it to work overnight. You can repeat this step for a few days if you have the time. Then you would need to use a tube brush # 814113 to help clean out the threads. This may require several solvent applications and brush cleanings to... view full answer...
The 100 lb maximum tongue weight on the # C11436 includes the weight of anything you add on. Assuming you added a carrier like the Curt 18153 you're referencing (which fits a 2" receiver) you would also need to account for the weight of the carrier. In this case, it weighs 70 lbs so you would only be able to add an additional 30 lbs to the carrier. You are always limited by the weakest component, which includes the towing/tongue weight capacity of your vehicle.

From your photo, it looks like you have Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero crossbars like the # RRVA126B-2. With these crossbars, the Thule Pulse Medium Cargo Box # TH614 is definitely compatible on your 2014 Chevy Volt. Also, with your 27" crossbar spread, that spread is compatible with the Pulse as well.
With both of these confirmations, you are good to go! view full answer...
I have a great roof rack solution for you. Unfortunately, I confirmed with Thule that they currently do not have any customized roof rack components or setups that work with your 2013 Chevy Volt (with or without the Thule Rapid Traverse Feet # TH480R).
However, with that being said, Inno makes a great system that fits your bare roof. For that system, you need the following components:
- Inno Square Crossbars - Steel - Black - 50" Long # INB127
- Inno Feet for Square Crossbars - Naked... view full answer...
The Thule Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box part # TH629706 is a bit large for a 2017 Chevrolet Volt. It would fit but you might not be able to open the hatch fully with the box installed. Instead, I recommend the Thule Pulse Medium Rooftop Cargo Box part # TH614 which will be the perfect size and it will allow you to open up the hatch as we have tested this ourselves. view full answer...

We have previously tested the Erickson and Tow-Rax O-Track Systems and found them to be compatible with each other. I went out to our warehouse to test the Erickson Anchor Ring # EM59132 on the Buyers Product Super Track # 337ST93 and found it to be compatible as well. This means the O-Track components from all three of the manufacturers you mentioned are indeed interchangeable and will work well each other.

Thanks for the picture! The best bike rack for your Magnum Ui6 Electric Bike is going to be the Yakima OnRamp item # Y96FR if your Volt has a 1-1/4" trailer hitch receive. The Yakima OnRamp has the capacity to carry two e-bikes weighing up to 66 lbs apiece. One of the best features of this bike rack is the cradle to attach to your bikes is adjustable and can be rotated, allowing it to attach to the cross tube of your bike.

After looking up pictures of your bike you would definitely need to use an adapter bar to carry your bike on a hanging bike rack. The adapter we recommend the most is the Swagman part # 64005 because it is the easiest to use of the ones we carry. I attached a review video for this product for you to check out as well.
The three bike trunk mounted bike rack I would recommend for you 2012 Chevy Volt that has been confirmed to fit your vehicle is the Thule OutWay part # TH56BV.

As the Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch # DL17042 is typically mounted to a horizontal post or beam on a trailer, we will not have a bracket to mount it vertically. That being said, you may be able to adapt the Dutton-Lainson Mounting bracket # DL24059 to work for your needs, but it will require some doing. If you have the option, it will most likely be easier to drill into the vertical post to get the # DL17042 mounted securely. view full answer...
The static capacity of the Thule # TH713700 79-inch ProBar Evo crossbars is 220 lbs. I called my Thule representative, who tells me that the bars don't carry a dynamic capacity and that the capacity maxes out at 220, regardless of whether the vehicle is moving or not. view full answer...
There are only certain hitch mounted cargo carriers that will work with the Class I trailer hitch, # C11221, for your 2014 Chevy Volt. The Carpod # M2200 only fits in a 2 inch receiver found on Class III and larger hitches. Since the Class I hitch has a 1-1/4 inch receiver the Carpod will not fit but we do have other carriers that will.
The Class I compatible cargo carriers include Curt carriers # C18145 and # C18110 as well as Reese carrier # 63155. Out of these options I recommend Curt... view full answer...
We do indeed have a roof rack and a kayak carrying solution for your 2018 Chevy Volt. I'd recommend a Yakima CoreBar roof rack, which can be assembled from the following parts:

• Yakima BaseLine Towers, part # Y28TR
• Roof Rack Fit Clips # Y06137
• Roof Rack Fit Clips # Y06126

The Curt # C11436 is confirmed to fit your 2017 Chevrolet Volt. There isn't a lot of trimming to the fascia. A 3" inch by 5" inch rectangular hole will need to be cut into the underbody panel. See the picture I attached from the install instructions. You can see this on page 6 of the instructions that I attached for you and on the installation video to learn more.

From the hitch pin hole to the edge of the license plate is 8" with the EcoHitch Invisi Trailer Hitch item # 306-X7186 installed on your 2015 Chevy Volt. With this in mind, I recommend the Draw-Tite Ball Mount for 2" Hitches item # 2753. It measures 9" from the hitch pin hole to where the hitch ball sits so this will give you plenty of room to clear your license plate and the back of your car.
For hitch balls you will want item # 63845 for a 2" ball or item # C40002 for a 1-7/8" ball. view full answer...
The Thule OutWay # TH45JV is listed as a fit on the 2013 Chevy Volt from Thule so it can be mounted on the car. What you are describing as potential problems is the way that the rack should be mounted. When properly secured to the vehicle the top straps and the lower legs will bear the weight. The lower straps keep the lower legs from going anywhere.
Make sure that it is set to FitDial setting 8. The arms that hold the bikes should be as level as they can be. Having the top arm on the... view full answer...
Most of the time platform bike racks can be a bit heavy but we do have one great solution. The Hollywood Racks Destination Bike Rack # HLY94FR which only weighs 20 lbs, can carry up to 35 lbs per bike, and can also fit the Class I 1-1/4 inch hitches available for your 2017 Chevy Volt.
The best hitch to use would be the Curt part # C11436. view full answer...
