CONSTITUENT WRITES REQUESTING INFORMATION AND ASSISTANCE DUE TO THE RECALL FROM CHEVY REGARDING BOLT BATTERY FIRES ON THEIR 2020 CHEVROLET BOLT.
Yesterday, 27 December, the vehicle was presented to Capitol Chevrolet for service under this recall number 21v650 They did not repair anything. To the contrary, they reset software to gimp the vehicle battery capacity --and hence, range performance--to only 80%. The car is worse now than before they "fixed" it. No date set for actual repair, when already more than 4 months have elapsed. And in the meanwhile, GM continues to collect 100% lease payment on only 80% delivered car. Not acceptable.

I had purchased GM original equipment when I bought my car. They are the factory floor liners that are sold by GM and can be bought at the dealership. The floor liners, for the most part, cover all of the footwell areas of the driver, passenger and rear seating. The following dates are approximate so keep that in mind. In August of 2021, I was attempting to get out of the way of a commercial vehicle that was about the run me off the road. While attempting to do that the accelerator pedal became lodged under the drivers side floor liner and would not release. This caused the acceleration for the car to be at the maximum level, resulting in the car taking off very rapidly. Only after applying the brake at the same time and getting over to the shoulder was I able to shut the car off and dislodge the pedal from the floor liner. Besides being absolutely terrifying it was extremely dangerous. It again happened in October of 2021. It is obvious when you look at the floor liner and it's design. The edge is sticking up just far enough to catch the bottom of the accelerator pedal and becomes very difficult to dislodge, especially when you add in the panic it causes when your car suddenly takes off as fast as it possibly can in traffic. I have contacted GM about getting replacements sent out and they said they are not doing that at the moment. I contacted the dealership where I purchased the liners and they said they were not going to do anything about it.
This recall advises not parking in my garage due to potential fire, it advises not charging to 100% due to likelihood of fire, . By not charging to 100% the car does not operate as intended. The Richmond International Airport posts a sign saying Bolt vehicles may not park in their garage or it will be towed at the owners expense. My windshield has a crack the length of the windshield. Safe lite ordered a Chevrolet windshield more than 3 weeks ago and Chevrolet has not been able to provide Safelite a windshield replacement. What alto dealer builds a car and does not stock replacement parts for obvious failure points! There is a recall on the floor mat sold by Chevrolet on the drivers side front. Chevrolet stated that the mat must be removed however parts are not available at this time as replacement. These failures are unacceptable and GM/Chevrolet should be mandated to buy back the car from the user immediately!
I was slowly pulling into a parking lot with my Bolt EV 2020, the car accelerated uncontrollably and in a split second had collided into the wall in front of me. A section of the wall had broken and the car was wedged in the broken section of wall. This is how it came to a stop. The acceleration was so sudden and uncontrollable that even slamming my feet against the brakes did not help slow down and avert the accident. It is notable that the air bags did not engage during this accident. This wall adjoined an apartment complex and a commercial property. It was fortunate that nobody was affected expect for damage to property. But the collision could have easily caused damage to lives had there been people on the apartment complex side of property. I also had a minor less 10 years old in my car who could have been potentially affected. On reading online, I came to notice two recalls on the vehicle. One of them about the floor mats and possible acceleration as the one described by me seems related. I was not notified by Chevrolet about this recall. I could have removed the floor mats had I known about the additional issue. The only notifications I got were for the battery, for which we have followed the safety pre-cautions prescribed. This incident happened less than 14 hours at the time of writing. A police event has been filled (EVENT 21-34-0195) with the Sunnyvale department of public safety. The insurance representatives are yet to inspect the vehicle. There were no warning messages, lamps or other symptoms prior to the failure.
2020 CHEVROLET BOLT. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO SAFETY RECALL RELATED TO BATTERY FIRES.
I hit a deer on a back road coming home from work, on impact I heard a loud explosion and smelt burning electronics and the smell of an air bag, the seat belt locked. Then after the initial impact the car then stopped and the emergency alarm went of and many messages were on the screen. Fast forward after everything, I call onstar to make ask a question they answered with I see your air bags deployed are you okay, I responded yes because "they didn't come out" the air bag switch did explosion but the air bag did not deploy.

This is a comment on an existing open recall (nhtsa chat said to use this form). Related to the Chevy Bolt recall 21V650. The latest information from GM at https://media.gm.com/media/us/en/gm/home.detail.html/content/Pages/news/us/en/2021/sep/0920-bolt.html contains this: "Within approximately 60 days, GM will begin launching a new advanced diagnostic software package that will increase the available battery charging parameters over existing guidance. The diagnostic software will be designed to detect specific abnormalities that might indicate a damaged battery in Bolt EVs and EUVs by monitoring the battery performance; alerting customers of any anomalies; and prioritizing damaged battery modules for replacement. It is GM’s intent that further diagnostic software will allow customers to return to a 100 percent state of charge once all diagnostic processes are complete." I would ask NHTSA to require GM to publicly describe how they tested and verified that this new software will find 100% of battery packs with faulty cells. For example by building a significant number of battery packs with known faulty cells in different configurations and confirming that all packs with faulty cells were correctly identified. This doesn't require the publication of proprietary information, only a description of the verification procedure and results. A previous software update was supposed to detect faulty packs but it did not work so a more robust test is required this time as they intend to use the information provided by this software to determine which packs to replace. Thank you

I received a recall notification regaring our 2020 Chevy Bolt which was purchased only six months ago. Not only is Chevy not providing any indcation as to when our car will have its battery replaced (the dealer suggests it could have six months or longer), their proposed interim fixes are completely unacceptable and unworkable. If we cannot charge the car more than 90% and if we cannot go below 70 miles, the effective range has been reduced by roughtly 50% or about 100 miles which frustrates the entire reason we purchased this car (we commute approximatel 120 miles round trip each day). They are not offering to provide a rental or substitute car nor are they offering to take the car back and I'm now stuck with a poorly made hunk of metal and lithium with no idea when we will be able to use the car again.

National recall for potential battery fire that GM has known about for a while in their older Chevy Bolt electric cars and now the problem has spread to their newer models. GM has placed restrictions on these cars for charging the battery and driving the car that it makes the vehicle unsafe to drive or even park near other vehicles or structures do to the potential of fire that could result in severe property damage, severe injury or even death.
The batteries that power my vehicle. The risk to me is spontaneous fire which could kill me and my passengers, burn my house down or cause me to have a car accident. The dealer identified the problem but does not have the parts to correct the problem and the dealer has no idea when they will be able to correct the problem. The only solution in the interim is to park the car away from everything and everyone and wait for the fire to initiate. The vehicle has been inspected by the dealer. I want the dealer to reimburse me for the vehicle so that I don’t have to constantly live in fear and risk death.
Vehicle has a known fire hazard. Vehicle is unsafe to be operated in the way it was intended(and as sold to me). Limitations on charging make the vehicle unusable. Only way to make the vehicle usable, makes it a fire hazard. No remedy is available, which means the car is unusable with no end in sight. Unacceptable for a new vehicle.
Currently, my 2020 bolt has been recalled due to fire hazards. I contacted the local GM dealership North Park Chevrolet (Castroville TX) and was informed that there is no clarity on the exact part that needed to be replaced in order to make my vehicle safe. I later contacted GM [SR:9-6936321672], in order in inquiring when parts will be parts will be made available for replacement still TBD and no part numbers were provided. I informed GM that even when charging to the recommended 90% that my car gets very hot and makes a loud noise while plugged into the charger, but I was informed that there they are currently still working on a solution. It is unacceptable for an auto manufacturer to sell a vehicle this is a fire hazard is at a higher risk due to the warning signs that GM has ignored.
NO fix available for vehicle next other recall part backorder
This is third occurrence. When doing hard acceleration (to merge onto road or pass vehicle) the vehicle would not stop acceleration. Hard braking did not disengage acceleration. Placed car in neutral and applied brakes. When placed back in drive continued hard acceleration. Placed vehicle in neutral and came to stop. Placed in Park and then drive continued hard acceleration. Had to bring to stop and power vehicle off.. Dealer will triage to see if error codes available. They want me to continue driving since no loaners available
Recently going from cali to az and back i had 7 check engine lights while charging but onstar said nothing is wrong. Also it happened while running at still while running the AC. This is very dangerous and I refuse to drive my bolt and will payout of pocket for a rental and seek reimbursement. Anyways Ive been trying to send these videos to engineering/you. Here is 4 videos Electrify america check engine https://youtube.com/shorts/15J8QhNRPRc?feature=share Evgo with onstar. In california evgo https://youtu.be/YH_3M5JMiAM Electrify america.

GM has stated in their NHTSA recall notice that my vehicle has the potential to burn down my home and has not provided any sort of fix or even a timeline to fix the problem. The recall states not to charge the vehicle in a garage. My home charger is located in the back of my garage and I do not have the ability to charge the vehicle outdoors without spending thousands to redo my home charging system. My garage is under my two story house, meaning a vehicle fire has the potential to destroy my entire home and kill everyone inside. Again, GM has made no offer to provide replacement vehicles or financial compensation for the home infrastructure changes that must be made to keep safely using the vehicle until a formal fix is announced, and any such repair would require being without the vehicle for weeks at a minimum. In summary, in order to abide by the stated interim recall instructions, my vehicle would be rendered useless as I would have no means of charging the vehicle. It is my hope that the NHTSA holds GM to account for their failures regarding this recall.
The contact owns a 2020 Chevrolet Bolt EV. The contact stated that while driving approximately 45 MPH, the accelerator pedal became stuck causing the speed to increase to approximately 65 mph. The contact indicated that the vehicle would not slow down while depressing the brake pedal. The vehicle was shifted into neutral and turned off to stop the vehicle. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The local dealer was notified of the failure. The manufacturer was not yet contacted. After the failure, the floor mats were inspected, and no related failure was found. The failure mileage was 3,200.
The contact owns a 2020 Chevrolet Bolt. The contact stated that while the vehicle was plugged into the charge box however not being fully charged. The contact stated that prior to the failure occurring the vehicle was already charged fully, without warning a couple of hours later, the vehicle exploded in the driveway of the contact's residence. The contact looked out the window and noticed smoke appear under the vehicle. The contact ran outside and within a minute the vehicle was engulfed in flames. Flames were seen underneath the vehicle and around the rear wheel well. The police were contacted attempted to extinguish the flames however failed. The fire department was contacted and came out to extinguish the flames. The vehicle did damage the driveway. The vehicle was not repaired or diagnosed. The vehicle was still awaiting insurance adjustor results and the vehicle was towed by the insurance company. No dealer was contacted. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and has started an investigation. Based on the vehicle information NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V701000,21V560000 (Electrical system) was a possible solution to the failure however the VIN was not included in the open investigation with NHTSA. The failure mileage was approximate 5,000. Consumer stated manufacture is no longer communicating with the consumer. As of 08/25/2020 insurance company deemed the vehicle a total loss.
A life threatening situation in which upon swift acceleration attempt the accelerator pedal was stuck in the down position, the safety of myself, my family who were passengers as well as other surrounding vehicles on the highway was put in immediate danger as vehicle proceeded to accelerate well beyond legal limit. Using the brakes only slightly decelerated the vehicle while vehicle dash displayed maximum power kept being sent to the drive unit. That same day I was unable to replicate the problem as it seems to happen only once per drive cycle. Same issue has occurred on 2 separate occasions during 2 separate drive cycles.
I was driving on highway at aroung 65 mph. Suddently, the driver window glass shattered without any external impact. The glass pieces fell very close the window where it shattered indicating there was no external force. I notified GM but they are not ready to even accept the case telling me that I am lying to them and somebody might have broken into the car.
I have had people following me, and almost hit me when stopped at a stop sign, or waiting to turn left, because the brake lights go off while the car is still being held to some degree by electric motor braking. When driving the car in L mode, one pedal driving, the brake lights come on when decelerating, but when stopped they turn off. The issue is, there is some electrical braking applied when stopped at a stop sign or light, even with no foot on the brake pedal. The car will hold on a slight grade when in L, with no foot on the brake pedal. As far as I understand the law, if there is service braking being applied, the brake lights must be on. I also believe that the electric motor holding back is considered to be service brakes on an EV. I've heard GM corrected this issue on the 2022 models, and I think it should be corrected in the earlier models. Another issue is tall vehicles following close behind me don't see the turn signals because they are in the bumper, mounted very low. I've had people blow the horn at me several times for turning, when they did not see my turn signals. They are working properly, just too low for some vehicles to see when they are close behind. The turn signals are separate and are much lower than the brake lights.

THE 2020 CHEVROLET BOLT EV PREMIER HAS EXCELLENT CRUISE CONTROL, HOLDING SPEED TO WITHIN 1 MPH OF SET SPEED THROUGH AUTOMATIC ACCELERATION GOING UPHILL AND AUTOMATIC REGENERATIVE BRAKING GOING DOWN HILL. THE CAR HAS COLLISION DETECTION AND CAN REPORT TIME TO IMPACT TO THE TENTH OF A SECOND. WHAT IT CAN'T DO IS APPLY REGENERATIVE BRAKING WHEN A DETECTED CRASH MAY BE IMMINENT. IT JUST FLASHES A WARNING LIGHT AND SOUNDS AN ALARM BEEP, BUT DOESN'T TRY TO PREVENT A CRASH, ALLOWING A DRIVER WITH SLOWED REFLEXES TO PLOW INTO THE VEHICLE AHEAD.
LANE KEEPING ASSIST (LKA) AND LANE DEPARTURE WARNING (LDW) ARE IMPORTANT SAFETY FEATURES, PARTICULARLY FOR OLDER DRIVERS. THESE FEATURES, TOUTED IN CHEVROLET'S ONLINE AND PRINT ADVERTISING, ARE POORLY, AND POTENTIALLY FATALLY, IMPLEMENTED IN THE 2020 CHEVROLET BOLT EV PREMIER. THE 2020 BOLT EV OWNER'S MANUAL DESCRIBES THESE FEATURES BEGINNING ON PAGE 213. WHEN TURNED ON, LKA IS UNDETECTABLE AND NO STEERING CORRECTION CAN BE FELT IN THE STEERING WHEEL. WHILE LDW MAY ILLUMINATE A SMALL AMBER WARNING SIGNAL ON THE GRAPHICALLY COMPLICATED DRIVER'S DISPLAY, THE MANUAL STATES, 'ADDITIONALLY, THERE MAY BE THREE BEEPS, OR THE DRIVER SEAT MAY PULSE THREE TIMES, ON THE RIGHT OR LEFT, DEPENDING ON THE LANE DEPARTURE DIRECTION.' ON PAGE 215. A SAFE DRIVER DOES NOT WATCH THE COMPLICATED DISPLAY TO DETECT A SMALL SYMBOL TURNING AMBER FROM GREEN. THE LACK OF AUDITORY OR VIBRATION WARNING RENDERED THIS SAFETY FEATURE USELESS.

I CONTACTED 3 MICHELIN DEALERS AND ALL OF THEM SAID THEY DO NOT REPAIR SELF SEAL TIRES. THE FOURTH MICHELIN DEALER WAS COSTCO AND THEY TOLD ME THEY COULD REPAIR IT IN ERROR. THEY HAD NEVER SEEN A SELF SEAL TIRE BEFORE, NEVER RECEIVED ANY TRAINING FROM MICHELIN ON THE REPAIR OF SAID TIRES, AND WHEN PRESENTED WITH THE PRODUCT BULLETIN ON HOW TO REPAIR THE TIRES STILL REFUSED TO REPAIR IT. AFTER A LOT OF HAGGLING I WAS ABLE TO GET MICHELIN TO AGREE TO PAY 50% . I AM STILL WAITING ON THE EXACT AMOUNT OF THE REIMBURSEMENT AND SO THIS HAS NOT BEEN COMPLETELY RESOLVED AS YET.
