So my Chevy’s been having trouble with the battery and I’m worried about repair costs. Would the battery be covered under Chevy’s warranty, or do I have to pay out of pocket?

Sorry to hear about your battery trouble! If you have a combustion engine, the battery is covered as part of Chevy’s bumper-to-bumper warranty coverage. If you drive an electric or hybrid vehicle, Chevy’s warranty will cover the battery repairs.
Remember that warranty coverage only applies if the battery fails as a result of manufacturer error. You also have a limited time that the Chevy warranty applies. Take a look at how long your battery is covered by warranty below:
Combustion engine battery: Covered by the three-year/36,000-mile Bumper-to-Bumper warranty
Electric or hybrid battery: Covered by the 8-year/100,000-mile Electric and Hybrid Vehicles warranty
