On the other hand, GM has not announced a specific time announced for stop-sale orders. Also, the automaker claimed that there are only a “limited number” of vehicles that are affected by this software malfunction.

It has only been a few weeks since the launch of Blazer EV but reports from media outlets revealed big problems in their reviews including Insideevs. The report also found some problems with the charging and vehicle alert system.
