It also wasn't that long ago that a diesel car that was parked and switched off spontaneously caught fire and wrote off an entire multi-storey car park at Luton Airport, so there's an anecdote for all.
That's not to say that problems with the Bolt weren't serious but they are not representative of the EV market as a whole.
