Re: [EVDL] Chevy Bolt battery replacement and 80% local driving policy.
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. On Wed, Apr 20, 2022 at 7:55 PM Christopher Darilek via EV wrote: > > They replaced the whole pack and the software.

Re: [EVDL] Chevy Bolt battery replacement and 80% local driving policy.
They replaced the whole pack and the software. I had to wait for forklift time, then a battery coolant hose (muffler bearings?). They left hill top mode off so I guess not on that 80% charging recommendation. Took 1 week, but free battery!

[EVDL] Chevy Bolt battery replacement and 80% local driving policy.
Thanks Chris I have a 2000 Bolt. Did they just replace a few cells and software or actually the whole pack? Did they finally recommend 80% charging for local trips like all other EVs?
