Chevrolet Bolt 2017-2019 Recall Update
General Motors is asking 2017-2019 Chevrolet Bolt EV owners to not charge their car overnight, and to park them outdoors as soon as they are done charging. Even if you have already had the recall performed. This is being done out of an abundance of caution following 2 fires in vehicles that had already had both software updates performed under the original recall. This is incredibly inconvenient, however, I will be parking my 2019 Chevrolet Bolt outside for the foreseeable future. I suggest that any other Bolt drivers out there do the same, please be safe!
JULY 14 2021 IMPORTANT UPDATE FROM GENERAL MOTORS
General Motors has been notified of two recent Chevrolet Bolt EV fire incidents in vehicles that were remedied as part of the safety recall announced in November 2020. Out of an abundance of caution, we are asking owners of 2017-2019 Chevrolet Bolt EVs who were part of the recall population to park their vehicles outdoors immediately after charging and not leave their vehicles charging overnight while we investigate these incidents.
Customers who have not had the remedy completed should still visit their dealer for the recall remedy while our investigation continues. At GM, safety is our highest priority, and we are moving as quickly as we can to investigate this issue. Customers should visit https://my.chevrolet.com/recalls or contact the Chevrolet EV Concierge 1-833-EVCHEVY or their preferred Chevrolet EV dealer.
