Consumer Description

UNKNOWN I wish to file a complaint against Chevrolet in regards to the Chevy Bolt recall. The new official guidance that states we should not park within 50 feet of another vehicle in my opinion is not realistically feasible and deems my vehicle unusable. I am also concerned this puts the burden of liability on myself if collateral damage does occur in a case of a fire. Below is a Bloomberg article providing further details to the source of my complaint. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-09-15/gm-tells-some-bolt-owners-to-park-50-feet-away-from-other-cars
