2019 Bolt owners who haven't had their battery modules replaced can get a software update from dealers that lifts the restrictions starting November 19th. GM said in an emailed statement that it will supply the software to the 2017, 2018, 2020 and 2022 Bolts within the next 30 days.

"This decision allows us to continue to prioritize recalls and repairs," the company said in a statement. "We will notify employees of our production schedule for early 2022 in due course, and until then we will continue to focus on battery module replacement." Work."
