the car can not go any farther than 78 miles

I was told by the dealer that I could charge the car at any of the "fast charging" stations. I didn't know this but at the time of my purchase, there were only two of these charging stations in my whole state that actually fit the proprietor plug of my car , both were far outside of the range the car could travel on a single charge. In order to go 10 miles, the car had to be charged for 2 hours at one of the L2 charging station and the cost was between $1-$2 per mile. Charging the car at home tripled my electricity bill and it took 22 hours to charge the battery completely. This full charge only allowed at most 78 mile range, and that's only if the radio and no other electrical features of the car were in use, and the car did not go up any inclines and stayed at no more than 55 miles per hour. I cannot drive this car any distance. I count the minutes until my 3-year lease is through. In the 2 years I've owned it, I've gone less than 6000 miles. My electric bikes have more miles. Chevy and the Chevy dealers lied about every feature of the car. I hate Chevy and will never purchase another product from them.
