WASHINGTON (Reuters) -General Motors Co said Tuesday it is extending until early April a production halt to its Chevrolet Bolt electric vehicle following a recall, but it plans to soon resume retail sales.
The largest U.S. automaker in August widened a recall of the Bolt to more than 140,000 vehicles to replace battery modules after a series of fires in parked vehicles, and halted production and retail sales. GM said in August it had recalled all Bolt vehicles built since it launched production in 2017.
