The radio amplifier is mounted in the rear trunk wheel well attached to the bottom, along with the subwoofer assembly. Under the amplifier is a small drain. My trunk leaked during the rain and shorted out the amplifier. This shut off all communication noise in car. No noise from blinkers or warnings of dangerous situations. According to AI, "The 2023 Chevy Bolt EV shares the same basic body structure and rear hatch design as earlier models (2017â2020), and there is no confirmed evidence

Turn Signal no longer returns to the original position after making a turn.
What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The door locks automatically unlock when the car shuts itself off if the key fob is inside. Yes, it is available for inspection. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Twice now, once in this car, and once in my previous car (a Bolt rather than an EUV) I fell asleep at a charging station, in the Texas summer, with the A/C running, and when I woke up, the car was off and the d
Water intrusion occurred inside the rear taillight assembly, resulting in visible moisture/condensation within the housing and subsequent taillight malfunction/failure. The affected taillight performs critical rear lighting functions, including brake and signaling illumination. The presence of water inside the sealed taillight assembly indicates a failure of the lens or housing seal. Over time, moisture intrusion caused degradation and failure of the lighting function. Loss or impairment of rea

I have been getting errors when I charge the car since last year. 3500 miles on a brand new 2023 and it's been at the dealership for over 30 days they offered me 2000 bucks and keep the car under warranty and I would have to pay the lemon lawyers 800 so I didn't take the deal. I have no car but I still pay 836 for my car note.

Forward collision prevention system activated unnecessarily. I was already breaking and on track to stop well behind the vehicle in front of me. I had just pulled around stopped traffic in another lane, which seems to be common in all the incidents I've had like this. The safety concern is that the vehicle stopped unexpectedly, and if traffic behind me hadn't been paying attention, they could have run into me. In the past I asked a dealer to look into it, and found nothing wrong. Deactivating
The camera systemâincluding the backup cameras when you put it in reverseâ more often than not produce an error on the display screen instead of a view of the rear rendering this mandated safety device unusable. It is available for inspection. The rear view camera is a mandated safety device required on all passenger vehicles. Not having it available makes it much easier to back into other vehicles or pedestrians walking behind the vehicle. This is a reproducible issue. It was inspected by a
The steering wheel locks at 9 and 3 when turning the wheel. It doesnât spin back like it should when returning straight. Very dangerous!
The lane departure warning goes on and off randomly. The heating stopped working. There are glitches on the screen interface. And yesterday a red light with a car and exclamation mark through it came on. I took it to the dealer and they only had time to check the code which came up as "hybrid/ev powertrain control module requested MIL illumination" The advisor who is not an ev technician told me not to worry about it because the light went off. Everything i am reading online says this could be a

Rear backup camera feed fails to display on infotainment screen. The issue appeared about a month ago and persisted until I took it into the dealership. The service center updated the software, and the camera initially worked properly again, but within 2 weeks of the repair, the issue recurred and persisted. Federal safety standards require all vehicles made after May 2018 to have functioning backup cameras. I live in a neighborhood that has a lot of small children, and their safety is at risk w
I have a chevrolet bolt for which I have a mychevrolet app link to control the vehicle remotely. For some reason I just noticed my mychevrolet app also is linked to a second chevy Bolt (the vehicle I am noting the VIN of in this complaint) for which I have no ownership of. This is a massive security lapse by chevrolet and they need to be investigated thoroughly as to why this occurred.
I am experiencing a well known flaw in the Chevy Bolt steering rack. The rack loses grease over time and eventually begins making clunking sounds, does not return the steering wheel to center, and makes steering less precise. This is a very common issue within Chevy Bolt forums and should be addressed by Chevy as a safety issue.
2023 Bolt's steering wheel doesn't return to center position while driving making it dangerous to drive.
Steering system not behaving as expected. Very stiff when making left and right turns at slow and moderate speeds, with a failure of the steering wheel to return to center.
