Chevrolet Bolt EV Service Guide
The Chevrolet Bolt EV was one of the first affordable long-range EVs, offering 259 miles of range. All Bolts have been through GM's battery recall program, with new LG battery modules installed. Service requires GM's GDS2 diagnostic tool and familiarity with the BEV2 platform. Discontinued after 2023, parts availability and specialist knowledge are increasingly important.
