ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
I have called my dealer at least 10 times over the last 2 years and still get the same answer from them on when I will be getting my batteries changed out. They say they are on backorder and do not know when they will be available. I would thin more than 2 years is sufficient time to correct their recall if they really wanted to.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Potential Consequences:
For 30K miles my rear camera view was full screen and proper aspect ratio. At some point after that I shifted into reverse quickly after starting and the view changed to a "zoomed" view. The screen image was fisheyed and 4/5th of the screen. Bulletin No.: 18-NA-050 Date: July, 2019 is incorrect. GM sold me a car that had proper full screen display in correct aspect ratio and now it fails to return to the as purchased image. My pickup truck has a button to adjust zoom that mimics this problem. GM needs to correct the zoom on cars to reflect true image.

Our letter to GM: November 23, 2022 [XXX] Chairperson and CEO General Motors Corporation 100 Renaissance Center, P.O. Box 431301 Illinois, Detroit 48232-5170 Re: Bolt EV Battery Recall #N212345940 VIN: [XXX] Dear [XXX], We are extremely frustrated and disappointed in GM’s performance in replacing the defective and dangerous batteries in our 2020 Bolt EV. It has now been over 14 months since Chevrolet announced the battery recall N212345940 on our 2020 Bolt EV — NOTHING has happened since other than reducing the range and value of our car.. We first leased a 2017 Bolt EV and opted to lease another at the end of the term SOLELY because of the ADDITIONAL range. It is over a 210 mile roundtrip to visit a relative and the 2017 model was barely making it. With a stated 259 mile range, the 2020 model was a good fit UNTIL the battery recall was announced the the safety software update severely limited the battery charging and mileage range. We no longer take the Bolt EV. We believe because of GM’s slow response, we demand $100 compensation for each and every month the car cannot meet its full charge capability, reducing its utility to us. Moreover, we also demand to know exactly WHEN GM will be replacing our Bolt EV batteries. The silence has been deafening. We are considering joining the class action lawsuits against GM regarding this matter. Your response to our demands will make a material difference in our decision to join the class AND whether or not we decide extend our lease, buy the 2020 Bolt EV outright at lease end, or simply return a grossly defective car to GM at lease end, October 2023.

POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
When I was parking my car on the street, in front of my house, my Chevy Bolt suddenly accelerated. Like it was full throttle. I slammed the brake pedal, didn't help. My Bolt pushed forward, then to the sidewalk, my parked 4000lbs van, that was in front of me (van had front wheels turned/pointing to the curb). My bolt continued accelerating for another few seconds, even that I was pressing brake pedal as hard as I could. I released and pressed brake pedal at least once or twice. Eventually my car stopped. Whole ordeal lasted just a few seconds. I turned the car off. After a minute, I turned the car on again, very carefully. It behaved normally. Throttle and brakes behaved like always. I parked it and will have it towed to the diagnostic or service place. Both my Chevy Bolt and my van (Dodge ram 1500 van 2003) sustained significant damage.

Potential Consequences:
I am filing a complaint against GM. The following info is from the NHSTA website. Original recall date: Aug 20,2021. Manufacturer Recall Number N212345940. NHTSA Recall Number 21V650. Recall Status: Recall Incomplete, remedy not yet available. I have waited over a year for my replacement battery. GM has seen an almost 15,000 vehicle surge in Bolt EV and EUV sales in the most recent financial quarter. And GM has announced increasing new Bolt production by almost 400%. However, thousands of existing Bolt EV owners are still waiting for replacement batteries. GM continues to state that parts are not available. Clearly, with the surge in sales and GM’s plan to increase Bolt production, parts are available. Existing Bolt owners have suffered for years with defective batteries that none of us known if or when a battery will catch on fire and kill us or damage property. I urge the NHSTA to put pressure on GM to replace defective batteries first before selling cars with nondefective batteries. I would not be complaining if GM was not clearly prioritizing profits over people. GM is making nondefective batteries but makes existing Bolt owners wait over a year for a replacement while GM takes in revenue and generates profit. The defective batteries catch on FIRE. None of the batteries existing Bolt owners should have to wait this long for replacement batteries and suffer with anxiety and stress not knowing when or if their car battery will spontaneously ignite.

Recall Status: Recall Incomplete, remedy not yet available. I have waited over a year for my replacement battery. GM has seen an almost 15,000 vehicle surge in Bolt EV and EUV sales in the most recent financial quarter. And GM has announced increasing new Bolt production by almost 400%. However, thousands of existing Bolt EV owners are still waiting for replacement batteries. GM continues to state that parts are not available. Clearly, with the surge in sales and GM’s plan to increase Bolt production, parts are available. Existing Bolt owners have suffered for years with defective batteries that none of us known if or when a battery will catch on fire and kill us or damage property. I urge the NHSTA to put pressure on GM to replace defective batteries first before selling cars with nondefective batteries. I would not be complaining if GM was not clearly prioritizing profits over people. GM is making nondefective batteries but makes existing Bolt owners wait over a year for a replacement while GM takes in revenue and generates profit. The defective batteries catch on FIRE. None of the batteries existing Bolt owners should have to wait this long for replacement batteries and suffer with anxiety and stress not knowing when or if their car battery will spontaneously ignite.

Potential Consequences:
I have called the Chevy dealer (Gilchrist, Tacoma, WA) more than 5 times in the past year in addition to the Chevy Concierge regarding the unrepaired recall for fire risk. I have followed all of the interim charging guidelines yet still have significant fear and anxiety that my house will catch on fire while the car is being charged. In addition, there is compromised range to the vehicle due to the modifications with charging and I incur great expense by being forced to use commercial charging stations for routine long distance trips.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
We took delivery of a Chevy Bolt from Sundance Chevrolet in May 2020. GM recalled our Bolt for battery fire safety concerns in August 2021. As instructed, we took the Bolt to our local dealer for a temporary safety fix. The software install reduced battery charging to 80%. As a result, our Bolt's effective range has been greatly reduced. The car is not operating as promised. This reduced operating condition has continued for more than 13 months. I also read that we may not even receive a replacement battery when GM finally applies the final remedy, if our battery is examined and found not to be defective: https://www.recurrentauto.com/research/bolt-recalls-told-through-the-data If true, that means we would have lost at least a year of full range without any compensation. We understand that production of new batteries will take time. But this is too long. GM has been unable to remedy this problem in a reasonable time. We have a much harder time understanding why GM hasn't examined our Bolt's battery to determine if is defective. If it isn't, the software battery charge detune could be removed and we could utilize full charge range again. Seems to us GM could implement a battery examination program immediately. If true, NHTSA should require this immediately. We are extremely dissatisfied with this situation, and are hereby formally notifying NHTSA of our complaint.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Potential Consequences:
Pushed accelerator to floor. When I took my foot off the accelerator car continued to accelerate at full throttle for about 15 -20 seconds. Uncontrolled acceleration stopped when I pumped the accelerator. Chevrolet dealer found no fault codes due to a problem with the fly by wire. It appears that when the accelerator was pushed all the way down it somehow got caught and held in the full throttle position by the GM rubber floormat even though the floormat was held in place and attached to the carpet by the fasteners that GM supplies. I had the car and mats for about 2 years before this very dangerous event took place. The local GM dealer cut and removed part of the mat by the accelerator to prevent possible mat contact with the accelerator. However, the dealer could not confirm the floor mat was responsible for the incident.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
I received recall notices in the fall of 2021 and at that time I did the suggested changes to the vehicle's menu as to charging percentage etc.. I did not get full use out of the vehicle through the winter for fears of lack of charge during the colder months and concerns about safety. On 3/31/22 I took the vehicle to the dealer, Central Maine Motors Auto Group -Waterville Maine, for the suggested software updates. At first there might have been an improvement in charge allowed, but difficult to tell because with the warming weather it would show more. On or around 6/15 the car behaved erratically while in stop and go driving and I noticed a warning on the dash which said something about propulsion problems and to take it to a dealer. The charge left did not read correctly on the way home and the vehicle would not charge when I got there. I took it to dealer that Monday the 20th with some trepidation for the 50 mile trip not knowing if I had power enough or if was safe to do so. I left the vehicle there and did get a loaner car. Now it is going into the ninth week since then, and besides me calling them to check after 4-5 days I have not heard anything from either the dealer or GM as to updates, timetables or any word at all. This is outrageous on their part and a sad state of affairs if no one in Gov't will step in to help with this situation. I know I'm far from being alone in this. Hope you can do something. -
