The recall was initially announced in November by GM and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.<\/p>\n<p>One of the fires occurred while the vehicle was charging at the home of a Vermont state lawmaker earlier this month. The other fire happened in New Jersey, a spokesman for GM said, adding that it was notified about it earlier this week.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;General Motors has been notified of two recent Chevrolet Bolt EV fire incidents in vehicles that were remedied as part of the safety recall announced in November 2020,&quot; the company said in an emailed statement. &quot;Out of an abundance of caution, we are asking owners of 2017-2019 Chevrolet Bolt EVs who were part of the recall population to park their vehicles outdoors immediately after charging and not leave their vehicles charging overnight while we investigate these incidents.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Customers who have not had the repair completed should still visit their dealer for the recall while the investigation continues, according to the automaker.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;At GM, safety is our highest priority, and we are moving as quickly as we can to investigate this issue,&quot; GM said.<\/p>\n<p>The NHTSA in October opened an investigation into three reported fires involving Chevrolet Bolt EVs. The automaker is cooperating with the federal vehicle safety agency, a spokesman said.<\/p>\n<p>Another Bolt EV that caught fire was reported by media outlets in May, but not all the recall repairs had been conducted on the vehicle. <\/p>\n<p>GM said it&#x27;s bought back some of the recalled vehicles but declined to say how many. Automakers often buy back recalled vehicles to\u00a0appease unhappy customers and avoid triggering state lemon laws and litigation.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2021\/07\/14\/gm-warns-some-bolt-ev-owners-dont-park-them-inside-or-charge-them-unattended-overnight.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>General Motors is telling some owners of<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":132223,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[23051],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
