Condition
GM recovers a small number of electric vehicle battery packs from customer-owned vehicles in the field
each year for further engineering study and analysis. This program helps GM improve future EV products,
analyze the performance of the battery packs in customer driven EVs, and proactively identify and correct
potential issues before they can impact battery or vehicle performance. GM selects batteries for participation
in this program based on various engineering criteria, including manufacturing data, vehicle location, vehicle
mileage, and battery charging behavior. The customers involved will be contacted proactively by GM to visit
a GM EV certified dealer for a battery pack replacement under warranty.
