On August 2, 2022, and again on August 19, 2022, GM stock initiated product inquiries to examine these accusations and others linked to them.

Because of these problems, the urethane seal adhesion in battery packs constructed during specific build windows could not be excellent.

At this time, General Motors is aware of three verified complaints of water entering inadequately sealed battery packs in the GMC Hummer Electric Vehicle (EV).
