What Owners Say
""Required a SW update and battery test. It did take more than one day for the repair as it had to charge, discharge and be tested after the update.""
Anonymous A., OR (2020 Chevrolet Bolt Premier Electric)"Software recall. This was a problem with overcharging and fire I believe"
Anonymous A., TX (2020 Chevrolet Bolt Premier Electric)"The battery pack failed and has been at the dealer waiting for a replacement for a month and I expect it to take another month though I haven't even gotten an estimate."
Anonymous, NM (2020 Chevrolet Bolt Premier Electric)""Would not hold a full charge. Was replaced at 9000 miles before was got car, and replacement failed at 20,000 less than a year later.""
Anonymous, CA (2020 Chevrolet Bolt LT Electric)"Received low propulsion message. I was able to drive the vehicle to the dealership. Although it took GM 3 months to get a replacement battery pack, the replacement functions well."
Anonymous, OH (2020 Chevrolet Bolt Premier Electric)""We bought the care used in November, 2023, and it had just had the battery replaced as part of a recall. In the summer of 2024 the battery failed and was replaced with an entirely new battery. In January, 2025 part of the main battery failed and it was replaced. Each time the battery was repaired or replaced the car was at the dealer for a couple weeks and no loaner car was provided. We are VERY lucky that we decided to hold onto our old car rather than trade it in, and we are seriously thinking of selling the car at a big loss as soon as the power train warranty expires. This is really too bad since we love the car other than the battery problems!""
