Every Chevrolet Bolt EV and Bolt EUV made by General Motors (GM) is under recall because the batteries could be defective. The problem is the result of two manufacturing defects in the N2.1 battery cell, combined with charging the battery to a full or nearly full state of charge after it has been substantially depleted. The battery could overheat and catch fire, causing damage to the vehicle and property around it.
