It is to soon to know and as of now there is no timeline for any repair, if such a thing is even possible at this point. The stop sale is in effect for every Bolt and we now know that even a fresh battery pack that came off the assembly line just last week carries the same fire risk as all the other...

Yes, I hope we find out some details. But it also seems to be another case of someone discharging pretty low fairly often. So that could be a trigger also. But the main point would still be that the final software update was unaware of a cell problem and didn't warn the owner. Then the "alarm&q...

No issues found with my 2017 (26K miles). I suspect they aren't finding very many given the handful of cars that burned. Other than needing to fix a lot of my settings once back from the dealer it is back to normal and I can charge away from home again. With the temp fix, communication problems prev...

I found this. It's for the Volt but probably it applies.

Nothing deceitful about it and no reason to panic, or even post about it. GM isn't a small organization you know. The information has to filter through a lot of departments. Then their IT department has to work through what is changing, test it, and then schedule the production change through their ...

Yes, perfectly normal. Mine does too on our slight slope of a driveway. Even our Forester makes a racket when it self-applies braking. I don't know how cars apply braking but much more dramatic than me stepping on the pedal.

Yes, I just made an appointment at the area Bolt-certified dealer but then got my notice in the mail a few days later. They're working on it today.

A 110v 15AMP cord will work using the home wall socket. Just get a good contractor grade cord, not some cheap $15 one. Set the car to 12amps (which is 80% of 15amps, the safety rating), or the 8amp setting and that will work. The 8amp setting especially in older homes that could have marginal wiring...

As a side note for new owners in cold areas (I'm in Chicago), I get a text alert when it hits 0 degrees F that I should keep the car plugged in to prevent battery damage. Now that is a generic warning since the battery, if above 40% SOC, can keep itself warm. But you may have it parked for days at a...

Ah, no. Got my 2017 used which now has 26K miles and my under hood looks basically new, including Chicago winters. I could almost eat off it in there. I just remove a few leaves up at the vent intake. Might depend on the area since if I still lived in AZ I'd probably need to blow some dust out of it...
