Consumer Description

Since about November of 2020 this vehicle has been under a recall, due to potential fire danger of the batteries. The interim solution was to not charge the battery above 90%. Within the last couple of months a "final" solution was initiated by GM, to solve this potential fire situation. I have had this "final" solution performed on my vehicle by the dealer. Now, we are informed that fires are still happening on these vehicles, even with the final repair. We are now told do not charge overnight un-monitored. Do not let the battery get below 30% or above about 80%. Do not store the vehicle in doors. I now read that GM does not expect any sort of "new" solution until September, or perhaps later. None of this works for us, with our current usage of this vehicle as our main transportation.
