Your information on the Bolt recall is wrong! The recall only applies to model years 2017, 2018, and some 2019. Model years 2020 and 2021 are not subject to the recall. The temporary work around is to only charge to 90%. Ed > On Mar 3, 2021, at 4:55 PM, Steves via EV wrote: > > That’s odd

That’s odd it went up to 100%, did it throttle back to a lower rate? Also be aware Bolts have a recall because of potential battery fires. While they figure out what to do they are changing the programming to only go to 80% charge. -Steve > On Mar 3, 2021, at 6:31 PM, Bob Bath via EV wrote: >

Hi folks With the request for $25k for an affordable EV, the 2021 Bolt comes close at $26k I saw last week in the showroom at Shelor in Christiansburg but I already bought a 20’ model in August for $30k with a $10k “Covid discount”. I drove up today from Roanoke to Columbia Md and stopped at a
