Consumer Description

I received a recall notice for my 2018 Chevy Bolt and my complaint is in reference to that. It is not a new issue. The remedy suggested by the recall notice is completely unrealistic. To use the car, I have to charge it overnight when I am sleeping. As is the case with almost every other Bolt owner, my charging station is in the garage. So it's unrealistic to (1) avoid depleting below 70 MPH range, (2) park my vehicle outside immediately after charging, and (3) avoid charging the car in my garage overnight. I just want to make sure GM does not escape liability if there is a problem and I did not follow these unrealistic guidelines
