GM is recalling all of their 2017+ EVs due to LG battery defects.

LG is recalling even their home batteries due to this defect.

On forums I'm hearing some people say they are switching back to ICE.

While I'd like to see EVs bound forward in technology and adoption, I'm hoping this setback allows me to get a cheap Bolt EV.
