GM has paused sales of its brand new Chevy Blazer EVs after some customers reported software problems. “We’re aware that a limited number of customers have experienced software-related quality issues with their Blazer EV,” Scott Bell, Vice President of Global Chevrolet, told CNN in a statement. “Customer satisfaction is our priority and as such, we will take a brief pause on new deliveries.” The automaker said it was working quickly to resolve the problem and sales would resume after the software update. Blazer EV owners will be asked to bring their cars into a dealership for the update. GM told CNN the software quality issues are not safety related and also not related to the Ultium propulsion system or Google Built-In. The Blazer EV launched just a few weeks ago as a mass-market SUV and an integral part of GM’s electric lineup. GM said last week it expects the Blazer EV to temporarily become ineligible for a US electric vehicle tax credit starting January 1.

An initial reading of third-quarter gross domestic product showed the US economy expanded at an inflation-adjusted annualized rate of 4.3%, a far faster pace than the 3.8% recorded in the second quarter, according to Commerce Department data released Tuesday. That’s the fastest growth rate in two years.
