Consumer Description

GM has been unable to provide a remedy for GM recall N212343880, NHTSA#21V560 in a timely manner, and has issued recommendations that are impossible for most owners to adhere to. Most recently GM has communicated that owners should park outside 50 feet away from other vehicles and structures. I live in a moderately densely populated area and this is impossible. I can not prevent other drivers from parking near me. GM should be required to buyback vehicles which have a safety defect which they have are unable to repair in a timely manner. Bolt EVs have been under safety recalls for almost a full year now, and no GM action to date has been successful in preventing Bolt fires.
