Claim that held upChevrolet Bolt EVGM's claim that the 2023 Bolt EV's battery-fire problem is fixed holds up -- NHTSA shows zero battery-fire recalls for this model year, though the car did get recalled for a separate, unrelated seat-belt-pretensioner fire risk and an air bag defect.

▸ SOCIAL PRESENCE

▸ CLIMATE COMMITMENT

Carbon neutral in global products and operations by 2040, via parent company General Motors, backed by a science-based-targets commitment.

Real progress: GM is the only one of five major automakers assessed by NewClimate Institute's 2025 Corporate Climate Responsibility Monitor to set a 1.5°C-aligned sales target (100% EV sales globally by 2035) — but the same report notes GM's plan still lacks a specific combustion-engine phase-out date required by the SBTi's draft automotive-sector standard.
