    Does Service Mode Time Out and Turn Off?

    Or does it stay on until what? If it times out, how long does it take? It would help if you cited authority for your answer. Thanks.

    Dead Car, Dead 12V Battery

    Last night I parked my 18 month old 2017 Bolt EV with about 5400 miles in my garage. It showed 150 miles remaining range, and I didn't plug it in. This afternoon, I found that it wouldn't respond to the fob, wouldn't respond to door button presses, and when I plugged it in, the charge light...

    Best Charging Regimen for Low Mileage and Hot Weather

    Seeking Descriptions of Experiences with Flat Tires

    My owner's manual tells me to "Contact roadside assistance for help" when I have a flat. I am curious to know what to expect when I do that. How long does it take for help to arrive? Can I expect anything better than being towed to a Chevy dealer, like on-the-spot repair of a repairable tire...

    What is the eyebolt for, and how do I use it?

    I just picked up my 2017 Bolt EV Premier last week. There is an eyebolt in a fitted cavity in the foam block under the cargo area floor where the compressor and sealant would be stored, if I had them. I could find nothing about it in the owner's manual. When I googled, I didn't find the...
