Defect Description:
FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
Four times during a cross country trip, after a Level 3 dc charging session, the car would either not start or if it did would not shut off. The gear could not be shifted into reverse or drive and the radio, AC all shut down even though the car was still on. The service soon indicator light came on. Diagnostics from ON-STAR said that it was the propulsion system. Another indicator light came on saying conditions not right shifting. The fifth time it occured while the car was moving and unlike the four previous times the gear couldn't be jiggled or temporarily rebooting the car by removing the 12-volt battery. The car had to be towed to the dealer where it was announced that drive control wiring harness needed to be replaced. This problem is well documented on GM Bolt forums. The car should have been recalled before my family was put at risk. I wasted 12 hours during a 19 hour move across the country due to this known problem. I was stranded in life threatening triple digit heat indices.

Defect Description:
UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Potential Consequences:
Chevy is not communicating with owners and putting batteries in cars on dealer lots so they can be sold and producing new cars with the new batteries. I was told by their EV hotline that new cars are being sold for $7,000 to $10,000 over MSRP, making a cash payout not an option because I couldn't repurchase a car. They had an unadvertised program to do MSRP to MSRP trades. They have denied my request, due to a high level of interest in the program. I found out about this from a blog post, not Chevy. They are not responding to my requests for a time frame of when my car will be fixed. I'm hearing on blogs that it's going to be more than a year. I'm seeing on line that some people are being told the repair will be more than a year from now, which will exceed Connecticut's lemon law. The lemon law states you have 2 years to report an issue. I purchased the car in June, 2021 with a range of 259. In August, 2021 it was recall and had restrictions put on it lowering my range to 216, a software update was released in February, 2021. This was advertised as removing the restrictions, but it reduced range again to 207. They offered to pay rental fees and gas, but failed mention that reimbursement would take 6-8 weeks, in February and now it's taking 8-10 weeks. I do not have the money to put up front for the rental. I tried to reach out to Ebony, evconcierge@chevrolet.com, to see if they would pick up interest on my credit card or expedite the reimbursement. She will not respond or call me back and her extension asks for a password, which I do not have. Please help. I have a funeral for a beloved uncle and the trip is going to take over 6 hours due to rerouting to get to supper chargers and the hour long wait to charge. On a full charge this trip can be done in 3 1/2 hours. I don't have the money to rent and I never pay interest on credit cards.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
My vehicle is part of recall 21V650 to replace my vehicle's battery. The current solution until a battery for my vehicle is available is a software update. I tried to take my vehicle in for the software update that is part of the recall on 1/10/22 via an appointment that I had scheduled and confirmed with the dealership. The dealership refused my appointment upon arrival and refused to install the software update. Not having the recall applied affects my safety by potentially allowing a fire to occur in my high voltage battery, the software update is supposed to prevent that from occurring until a new battery can be provided. This issue is part of the wider recall number, noted above and the manufacturer not handling repairs in a timely and professional manner to ensure that everyone has a safe vehicle to utilize as it was intended when purchased.

TIRES
Potential Consequences:
on 7/2/21 I hit a curb at two miles per hour which caused a gash in the passenger front tire sidewall. I purchased the 21 Chevrolet Bolt and these Michelins are Bolt specfic, Michelin A/S selfseal because I work in construction and had a lot of flat repairs so selfseal was a primary driver for the lease. The tires have the sealant already inside which makes the tires heavy and cumbersome in handling. The sidewalls feel like they are buckling because the weight is in the tread and around it. These low rolling resistance tires have bad traction especially in wet conditions. I had to leave my car in an unsafe location and it took GM Roadside Assistance four days to get the car to the dealer. The bolt has no spare or sealant kit. I complained to GM and they offered me goodwill GM points which they later reneged on.

Potential Consequences:
First the selfseal tire fiasco on 7/2/21 then in late August with the recall GM agreed to buy back the Bolt. The dealer picked up the Bolt on 9/3/21. On 11/16/21 GM offered me a horrible buy back that didn't cover all my downpayment and fees at the time of lease. I rejected it and I am still paying and insuring for a car unsafe at zero speeds. Anyway NTSA can hold GM accountable over the Bolt failure? This defect was present when I leased this car new on 1/31/21 and GM was already buying back Bolts. This should have never been sold to me in the first place.

Potential Consequences:
While accelerating, the vehicle's drive system stopped functioning.

All other systems were still working, however the hazard lights do not stay on when I had to try powering the vehicle off and back on again. The vehicle has been towed to a Chevrolet dealership for diagnosis.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
Not Happy. I bought my Bolt assuming I would get the convivence and range of a fully functional vehicle. The restrictions imposed upon my and my Bolt are unacceptable. I can only charge in my garage unless I go the a pay for power source and wait around. I also prefer charging at overnight, after 2100 hrs, as I feel I am using less valuable energy. My employer has requested I do not park in the company lot or near any buildings. Very reasonable request under the circumstances. I think GM should allow me to rent a safe vehicle until my Bolt can be brought back to the original quality/range/safety standards! Please forward this to the powers that can make this happen. I will also be in contact with the appropriate governmental agencies, especially if my requests are ignored or denied.

Chevrolet has announced that they will soon be releasing software that will allow 2019 models to be parked indoors after charging and lifting other limitations. Owners of the 2019 model year Bolt EV that have not had a battery module replacement will be contacted for software updates. New software for the remaining affected Bolts and EUV's is coming by Christmas. The new settings will lift limitations on indoor charging overnight, operating below 70 miles of range, and indoor parking after charging!

Additional Notes:
Not Happy. I bought my Bolt assuming I would get the convivence and range of a fully functional vehicle. The restrictions imposed upon my and my Bolt are unacceptable. I can only charge in my garage unless I go the a pay for power source and wait around. I also prefer charging at overnight, after 2100 hrs, as I feel I am using less valuable energy. My employer has requested I do not park in the company lot or near any buildings. Very reasonable request under the circumstances. I think GM should allow me to rent a safe vehicle until my Bolt can be brought back to the original quality/range/safety standards! Please forward this to the powers that can make this happen. I will also be in contact with the appropriate governmental agencies, especially if my requests are ignored or denied.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
This is regarding the battery defect. I initially called into GM on August 31, 2021 to start this buyback and have not driven this since. It’s been parked on the street because I have a newborn and a 2 year old. It would be irresponsible of me to drive and charge this car while my children are here. There has been no progress while working with GM. They have ignored me and are unreachable. I went through BBB and the settlement has been approved, but GM still has not contacted me and is unreachable. My case number with GM: SR:9-6913861036 My case number with BBB (settlement has been reached but no response from GM): CHV2125923
