How much factory warranty is left on your Bolt EV?
Estimate only, assuming the car was first sold early in its model year. Your in-service date is on your registration or available from a dealer.
Chevrolet Bolt EV factory warranty
New Chevrolet vehicles typically come with basic coverage for 3 years or 36,000 miles and powertrain coverage for 5 years or 60,000 miles, whichever comes first. Coverage starts on the date the vehicle was first sold. Terms can differ by model year, so confirm yours in the warranty booklet or with a Chevrolet dealer.
Why body style matters
Hatchbacks are mechanically close to small sedans, with one driven axle and modest weight. That generally keeps coverage affordable, though small turbocharged engines are increasingly common.
Electric drivetrain
An electric vehicle has no engine oil, spark plugs or multi-speed transmission. What can fail is the drive unit, the onboard charger, the DC-DC converter, the heat pump and the battery cooling system, plus the same suspension, steering and electronics as any car. Only some plans accept EVs, and battery capacity loss is not covered.
About Chevrolet
Chevrolet's range runs from small crossovers to heavy-duty trucks, so the right coverage depends heavily on how the vehicle is used. Trucks that tow and haul put more load on the transmission, transfer case and axles.
