Hi,
New member in the process of purchasing a used 2022 EV with 8,100 miles. By records, it was in for the 8k mile service and tire rotation but I don’t know if it has received the latest software update limiting it to 80% charge. Purchasing from an independent dealer. Suspect it was traded in somewhere but not to a GM dealer. The Bolt is currently in another state and I’m pretty certain the dealer doesn’t know how to or have the ability to determine if it has been updated. Is contacting the concierge with the VIN the only way to find out? Thanks!

When did it go in for service? The software update for model year 2022 was made available on December 21st, so if the service was before then, it wouldn't have received the update at that time.

Unfortunately, the software update is an interim procedure that does not change the recall status, so you won't be able to tell from the Chevy recall website or NHTSA.
