Petro Canada, Cobourg ON EV Charging Stations

This station is defective.

talked to the cashier he informed me maintenance has been called for a faulty charge cable

Hi fellow chargers. Glad I can contribute to 5 years of pain and tears generated by this charging station (glorious pun). If only this charger would work on frustration and anger I would be out of here already. Sadness. In a line with 3 cars waiting and commiserating. Petro-Canada if you still have some shreds of dignity from selling oil next to ev chargers, please fix the first charger. Kindly your fellow neighbours.

ditto with the others here. was great when we could just use the credit card....shame on you Petrocan!. this discourages the evolution of evs.

Station 1 is always not working. Station 2 is good.

Horrible, horrible app. it absolutely sucks. this was the only decent place to charge in Cobourg. App will not start the available charger.

Charger 1 does not connect, charger 2’s tap to pay is out -so you have to use an app

You used just tap your credit card and it worked. It’s a freezing cold winter morning and the screen now says download the petro app. So I’m freezing, downloading some stupid app and setting up an account. That doesn’t work. Go inside the lady says I need this app. Download this app , set up account, add credit card, add funds, activate charger. Charger is broken. Switch the other one and do it all again. Why?!?!?!!!!! I don’t need an app to get gas!!!!! ENOUGH WITH THIS GARBAGE!

both failed to communicate with vehicle

Updated from previous comment. This is a 350kw charge station. My car is a lower range EV. Charges at 50kw max. Right now, charging at 5kw. Yes, you read that correctly. 5kw.... Low Level 2 charging speed. Can't say how your fast charging EVs will do but this is unacceptable, regardless.
