I've got a '22 EUV sitting on the lot since March... waiting waiting.... I'm in Victoria BC, Canada.

Fingers crossed for tomorrow....

So I added my list to the tracker and made a summary for the dealer stock, see below. A few points to note:

• The starting point is this week, so it doesn't include any vehicles with finished swaps yet. Based on the recent NHTSA report, likely around 1000 dealer stock vehicles have already been done.
• This sample represents about 10-15% of the outstanding dealer stock, enough to give a rough idea of how they are progressing overall.
• The summary implies that swaps in the 4112xxx+ VINs haven't started yet, but that's not the case, I've seen a few 4112's and 4113's get done over the last month or so. There just happen to be no open ones in our sample.

Spot any trends?

Going by this, my 4113 isn't going to get a battery any time soon. Canada seems much slower than US too... ugh.

This great recall tracker (thank you sir3lt) lists 260+ new Bolts sitting on dealer lots waiting for replacement batteries, including the one I put a deposit on in June. Sadly, it shows that only seven (7) of the 260 have been replaced in the past week. Really discouraging if it accurately reflects what's going on in the real world, and at this rate it will be the second quarter of next year before these recalls are completed.

On the plus side, at this rate I have a good shot at qualifying for the new tax incentive starting in January.

I rang and spoke to GM a couple of weeks ago. The guy there said they hope to have all batteries replaced by the end of the year.

I've got a 22 with VIN ending in 3938 that just opened up.

My '22 is ending 3132 - here's hoping it will be soon. Rebates are changing (Canada) so the price I will now pay is $1000 more than when I originally agreed to buy and placed my deposit. I wonder if the dealer will add a dealer discount to make up the difference?

Looks like another 29 22 EUVs became eligible today!

I think one of them is mine!!?? It now just says "INCOMPLETE" instead of "INCOMPLETE, REMEDY NOT AVAILABLE".

 

[Mandymoo]

Then you should be eligible. You can verily by going to the Bolt recall chevy website. If it says status open. Then it can be ordered.

I just sent a text to the dealer and he said it was already ordered at 7:30am this morning. Should be here in 1-2 weeks.

I've ben told that my battery will arrive next week, along with 18 others to my dealer!! Should get my EUV next week!

Mine was ordered by the dealer and was not sent automatically by GM. I would suggest calling the EV Concierge because they should be able to remedy the situation quickly.

Mine was also ordered by the dealer 7:30am on the morning it switched to open. Picking it up this afternoon - woohoo!
