VEHICLE ISSUE BULLETIN

Those who own or lease a 2020 Chevrolet Bolt EV should know that several customers have lodged concerns about recurring electrical system failures and power issues, many of which have not been resolved despite multiple attempts to do so. Reports of safety issues in this make and model range from batteries that are at an increased likelihood of catching fire to failed attempts to install the necessary software updates to keep these vehicles aligned with the most recent safety standards. So far, the manufacturer has issued six separate auto safety recall campaigns affecting this make and model, one of which is considered an urgent fire risk. Unfortunately, many Chevrolet drivers are still waiting to obtain the recommended recall repairs so they can feel safe on the road once more.

One owner of a 2020 Chevrolet Bolt EV stated that the Chevrolet dealer was unable to install the latest software update, and the dealer has not followed up on any plan to install this critical update. According to this Chevrolet customer, the manufacturer has had more than three years to fix the issue and has yet to show any signs of making this update available. Several other Chevrolet customers reported their concerns about the vehicle’s battery fire risk, especially because they have yet to receive a clear path forward that resolves this safety issue. For now, concerned customers continue to await clear answers and permanent solutions to these considerable safety issues.
