Where did you get that info? Their site says it’s 2 manufacturing defects in the battery.
Specifically it says
The problem consists of two LG manufacturing defects (a torn anode tab and folded separator) that, in rare circumstances, can simultaneously present in a single battery cell in the LG battery module.
Also, the Bolt does have battery heating/cooling last I checked. The Nissan Leaf, however, doesn’t.
Upon checking yes you are right. I definitely got it wrong. I recalled incorrectly and didn’t read the article. I have seen manufacturers cut corners in the EV space and got them mixed up. I would keep some what I said though. “This is an engineering issue not a technology issue.” applies. I felt the way stated above about the Nissan leaf. Torn anode tabs and folded separators are inexcusable. There’s really no excuse for this. The companies know these batteries are lethal and safety needs to come before profits. And until executives who only graduated in business with no engineering background are in prison this will keep happening.
So … on top of manufacturing in this sector, there will be a need for a regulating body just like what happened in aviation. (?) (( present comment relates to the edit I made in my root comment ))
