Chevrolet Bolt
Chevrolet Bolt EV and Bolt EUV, 2017 to 2023
The battery recall is what makes a used Bolt worth a look. GM recalled every Bolt built through 2022 over a fire risk: 2017 to 2019 cars were set to receive replacement batteries, while 2020 to 2022 cars got diagnostic software that flags the modules needing replacement. Owners whose modules were replaced were promised a new 8-year, 100,000-mile warranty on them.
So the paperwork matters more than the odometer. A Bolt with a documented new pack has a younger battery than its age suggests and fresh coverage to go with it. A car that only received the software remedy is a different proposition, so find out exactly what was done before you pay.
