NHTSA complaint #11479796, filed 2022-08“I am filing this complaint regarding my 2022 Chevrolet Bolt, which has been awaiting battery replacement at McCluskey Chevrolet for over 30 days, creating significant safety concerns and violating federal warranty requirements. Safety Concerns: The vehicle's safety systems detected a battery defect serious enough to automatically restrict functionality. This demonstrates GM recognized an immediate safety risk.

NHTSA complaint #11683726, filed 2025-08“General Motors is making brand new Bolt ev/Euvs using batteries that are supposed to be used to fix cars that could potential catch fire.

NHTSA complaint #11474582, filed 2022-07“I was driving on the highway above 60 mph, and I suddenly got a propulsion power reduced alert, along with a yellow indicator light.

In fact, it felt like the car had engaged the regenerative braking to actively slow me down. This is a life-threatening safety flaw, as it was difficult to get to the breakdown lane. The only reason there was no collision was that there was relatively light traffic. …”
