The GEM guy at the LA Car Show told me that this had been done because the Feds had been hastling them for producing a NEV that would exceed 25 mph so they...
Let's suppose you get a ticket for going 35 mph in a 25mph limit. Now, you are driving a vehicle that is limited to a maximum speed of 25mph - something isn't...
Around here flat bed tow trucks are as common as standard tow trucks. BTW your Prius should also be towed on a flatbed. AAA here in California will arrainge...
I'm actually fine with the 25mph limit now. After driving my Gem now for over 3 weeks I don't see a reason to need to going any faster. I seem to always catch...

I just test drove a GEM yesterday, only around a few blocks from the dealer's, and it seemed kind of bumpy. I felt almost like I was in an amusement park...
In addition to having suspension which was not designed to give a "cushy" ride, GEMs have a very short wheelbase which tends to amplify the harshness of the...
Hi-- My GEM was recently towed. When I picked it up from the tow lot today, I could not drive it. I thought there would be sufficient charge left as it was...
Janet, From looking over the service manual it is a code to do with your accelerator voltage I think. It says: Accelerator voltage unput is to high on power up...

I have back problems, too. What would be a slight jostle to a normal person can be excruciating, and I have a GEM 2002 eS. It is, as someone else observed,...
Has anyone installed Gems hard doors on their 2 seater Gem? If so were you given very good instructions from Gem? Please let me know. Instead of selling my 05...
... paths and go very, very slowly where the road is worse. Funny, I also know every bump in the road in a 15 mile radius. I know when to switch lanes and...
I will be testing a different set of shocks that fit the eS and eL, not sure itf they will work well with the e2 or e4, they are a bit less stiff, since you...
Tracy, It is not an easy task, you do have to do some drilling and cutting of the plastic body, if you do not feel comfortable doing so I suggest not to, we...
Janet, Do try shutting the master disconnect OFF for a while, but do you know if your car was towed on a flatbed? do you think they might have dragged it? ...
Hi Tracy, to add hard doors is a pretty in depth process, keep in mind that you can not add hard doors to a 4 passenger car, the 2 pass you can, the 4 pass is...
Carlos, Are the framed canvas doors enough for winter driving though? I want to be able to drive my Gem as much as possible throughout the year including when...
Yeah I was told hard doors couldn't be added to a 4 passenger unless it was done at the factory. If I get a Gem tech to install some hard doors how long should...
Hi, I turned the master disconnect off/on, and that was good advice. Everything is OK now. :) No, they did flatbed tow it, I know. But what could cause the ...
If they did move, pushed it around with the master disconnect ON, that might have made the controller to get some current run thorugh it making the BDI display...
A factory trained GEM tech should be able to install the doors in about 3 to 5 hours providing they have installed the doors before, don't get me wrong, it...
My GEM won't move. It shows a 100% charge and no error code but when I release the brake and step on the accelerator, nothing! Only a slight hum from...
I have a 2005 E4, and I have to say that the ride is nice. No complaints whatsoever. Just glancing through the posts here, I'm inclined to think that it's...
