i thought it was only me.
This is what works for me, when you turn your car off and open the door, before you do anything else, grab your door. I usually grab around the window part of the door, then get out of your car while hanging on to part of the door and without letting go close your door. Guaranteed no more shocks. My wife and I only get zapped when we forget to do this. Works whether you are the driver or a passenger.
When you get out of your car touch the body of it with the tip of a key. If the charge is high enough you can watch it arch and crackle across the gap before you even get metal to metal. It became a way of life when I lived in Reno for two years.
When you're getting out of the car at night, touch the door frame slowly you'll actually see a electricity energy arc. Pretty cool the first time I did it. It will do it matter the grounging kit or strap. I've done it all. See all the different threads on the same topic here ( https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/se...archid=1716684 ).
touch the door frame before you put your feet on the ground, and contunue to hold on to the metal frame untill your completly out of the car. this should stop the shock from hapening.
