2018 CHEVROLET VOLT — Complaint #2073143
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:PROPULSION SYSTEM:TRACTION BATTERY filed March 11, 2025
NHTSA complaint #2073143 (ODI reference 11647782) concerns a 2018 CHEVROLET VOLT and was filed on March 11, 2025. The owner reports the failure occurred on March 3, 2025. The report was geocoded to Delaware based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as electrical system:propulsion system:traction battery, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same CHEVROLET VOLT cohort independently describe similar electrical system:propulsion system:traction battery failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2018 CHEVROLET VOLT shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
