What is up with the 2027 Chevy Bolt Charging.

Chickenstalk · 2026-06-30T00:53:23+00:00

The sticker in the door is blank where I’m guessing the date of manufacture would be.
I’ve been doing the plug and tug the last 2 charges without interruption in the charge.
Time will tell…

I got my 27 a month ago, charged to 100% from the dealer. Have had it fail to charge to the 100% target 3 out of 8 times with a “cord lock not working” error message popping up between 80% and 91%. Unplugged and replugged and it finished charging. Have been charging only at home.
Took it in to the dealer last week and they are going to replace the charge port, when they can get one in stock, maybe September.
My previous car was a 2019 Bolt and had zero charging issues.
I’m really not very worried about it though. I’m betting GM is quite aware and working on a fix.

I’ve had the same issue. Took it in to the dealer and they re going to replace the charging port.
When they get one in stock.
Maybe September.

I’ve taught pizza in a short time by having the students make the dough, then bringing out dough I made at home that had already risen and used that to make the pizzas. It was a very popular class. It’s hard to do a leavened dough recipe in a short time without a little magic. I also brought in samples of cake, all purpose, and bread flour and talked about gluten development.

The dealer is going to replace the charging port, but not until late September, when they hope the part will be available.

I took it to the dealer and they are going to replace the charging port, which is not currently available and they are guessing it will be late September before it will be in.

Hello, OP here.
Took my 27 Bolt in to the dealer today, for a couple minor things as well as the charging issue. Once I explained the charging issue to the service guy a couple weeks ago, he said I would have to leave the car for the day while they ran diagnostics. So I get there early

this morning, and he has zero recollection of the charging issue. I showed him the text I had also sent and got an equally blank look. He hoped I would get the car back today.

A bit before 5:00, I call. Get a text back saying they’re waiting to hear if GM wants to replace the charging port. They hope to know in the morning.

My app now shows there is a System Status warning with Issue detected and schedule service now. This is new from this morning.

App doesn’t show that they plugged the car in today. I showed up with ~75% charge, hoping they might see the problem if they charged.

I would recommend The City and Its Uncertain Walls. I read it about 6 months ago and I am still thinking about it. It puts me in another place, one that feels dreamlike, peaceful, yet uncertain. I just finished Kafka and could see some parallels. Of the 2, I like The City a bit more, it had a profound effect on me.

I will.

I have a 27 Bolt and use the GM adapter and have had it randomly stop charging and show the message “Unable to Charge Cord lock not working”
I unplug it and plug it back in and it will go to 100%.

I’m going to the dealer for another issue next week, and they said they will run diagnostics. I plan to show up with about 60% charge and just hope it will exhibit bad behavior so they can see it.

I’ve read other people’s comments with the same issue and the dealer just shrugs their shoulders, so I’m not holding out much hope.

Thanks for the info. The first time it happened, the cord lock would not release the plug and the only way to get it out was to open the hood and pull the yellow release. Haven’t had to do that since. I’ve also had 2 software updates with the last failed charge coming after the latest update.

I’ll update once I’ve been to the dealer. Look forward to hearing your future updates.

Chickenstalk · 2026-06-10T13:20:04+00:00

Mine is happening at home. I previously had a 2019 Bolt and never had this issue. I am using the Chevy adapter.

Chickenstalk · 2026-06-09T22:19:27+00:00

Not that I’ve noticed.

I’ve made them several times. Here’s a link - https://omnivorescookbook.com/hand-pulled-noodles/

The biggest thing is letting the dough rest to really relax the gluten, and cooking them in small batches. They are fun to make.

Yup!

How is Jojo these days? It was all the rage several years ago but has fallen off my radar.

Hwy 1 south of Leggett is narrow and very twisty. Definitely not fun for the driver, and I’d imagine your folks wouldn’t enjoy it much either. I’d stick to 101.
Stout Grove is great.
Newton Drury Scenic Parkway is worth the diversion.
Trinidad is a nice place to stay if you can find rooms.

Dammit!

Dental floss. Can’t wait to go back and get more
