Ours took 3 days. We had to get the battery down to less than 10%(?). We arrived at the Chevy Dealership with around 8%. Part of the process is to drain the battery completely and that takes time. We dropped it off Sunday evening and picked it up Thursday morning after a call on Wednesday saying it was done. From what I understand, it is a long and involved process.
My appreciation goes to Chevy in replacing the pack and giving us a new warranty.
