Consumer Description
THE FIRST YEAR OF THE LEASE, THE MAIN COMPUTER BEGAN TO FAIL AND THE ENTIRE SCREEN WOULD BECOME BLACK, WITH THE ENTIRE CAR INTERMITTENTLY LOSING POWER ON THE FREEWAY. THE COMPUTER WAS REPLACED. LATER ON, THE BLIND SPOT SENSORS BECAME ERRATIC, BUT THIS IS LIKELY DUE TO A SHODDY REPAIR BY THE DEALERSHIP AFTER SOMEONE REAR-ENDED THE CAR. THE PRIMARY CONCERN IS THE POWERTRAIN. THE BATTERY RANGE DECREASED BY NEARLY HALF WHILE DRIVING, WHICH WOULD HAVE BEEN DANGEROUS IN A REMOTE LOCATION. THERE SEEMS TO BE AN ISSUE WITH THE BATTERY MODULES ON THE 2018 CHEVROLET BOLT.
