There have been 9 2019 Bolts that have caught fire.  The 2019 Bolts with batteries made in Korea are significantly impacted.  We find the level of risk associated with continuing to use the vehicle to be unacceptable.  Fire departments need special training to put out EV battery fires.  We have no idea if our small local fire department has this kind of training.   The new guidelines are difficult and probably inadequate.  Parking in the driveway leaves the car still too close to our house.  The fires in other cars have occurred 3-6 hours after charging. Could the car catch fire after being driven in that 6 hour window after charging?  Could it catch fire while parked near other cars?  What if a child was waiting for a parent in that car?     With charging to only 90% and not letting the battery drop below 30%, we are left with far less safely usable range than what we paid for when we bought this expensive vehicle.  Too many times this week we have watched the range drop with a level of fear that is just not OK.   GM already tried to use software to detect defects, and they admit that it failed.  They won’t say how things will be different this time. They also won’t say how the replaced cells will work effectively with the older cells.  So even after the remedy is applied, can we trust the integrity of the battery pack?    GM has given no timeline for this remedy.  We have been told loaners or rental vehicles will be offered by GM, we don’t have it in writing and the dealership we are working with seems unaware of this policy and/or unwilling to part with any of its loaners.  And we’ve been told that GM will not reimburse until the loaner or rental period ends, leaving owners to front the cost.  What about the owners who can’t do that?    GM must replace all battery backs, provide vehicle replacements, or buy back the cars from affected owners.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2019","productMake":"CHEVROLET","productModel":"BOLT EV","manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC"}]}]}
