I must have missed the bulletin on the $520 charge coming to our open parts account for Bolt batteries. Can someone point me in the right direction to what this?

Thank you in advance!

Effective January 1, 2024, GM is changing part of the process for Lithium-Ion battery packs and modules
(sections and kits) used for warranty and recall repairs. Rather than dealers exchanging battery
packs/modules with no upfront cost and receiving an administrative allowance upon job completion, dealers
will now order and pay for battery packs/modules upfront and receive their approved parts markup based
on the Dealer price that will now be published in GM’s Electronic Parts Catalog (EPC) upon submission of a
claim in accordance with GM’s Service Policies & Procedure Manual.

thank you!

Are you in a state that you can petition for customer pay prices on warranty jobs? I'm selling these at about 970. not quite the amount of the fee but close.

but all the child labor in the world couldn't build these batteries at a cost of $520. They just take the loss in the cost of manufacturing them so we can't make a markup.
