The combination of hardware and software in the Webasto charging cords included with certain 2022 and 2023 Chevrolet Bolt EUV models doesn't work well together and could potentially cause an electrical shock under certain circumstances
experience. One factor that’s never supposed to be a pain point is the physical safety of charging itself. That’s why General Motors is now recalling more than 10,000 charging cables that could shock users under some circumstances.
The charging cables in question come from GM’s supplier Webasto Charging Systems. More specifically, they’re third-generation chargers with part number 24044913 and they’re part of the package that comes with certain 2022 and 2023 Bolt EUV vehicles. According to GM, the issue isn’t really with the cord itself or with the software but the combination of the two.
Evidently, the software itself isn’t compatible with the hardware, and when one unplugs the charger it might not stop charging. Typically, the loss of a ground connection would stop the charge but in this case that doesn’t happen and it could end up discharging elsewhere.
