Covered home charging installation promotion process - how it works

Each eligible Customer will have the option to choose from the following offers: 1) a Standard Installation, 2) an Installation Credit, or 3) EVgo Credits. Once you have purchased an Eligible Vehicle and your Participating Dealer reports your vehicle as delivered, your Dealer will register you for the Promotion and for the offer of your choice by submitting the information on your purchase order (name (first/last), home address, email, and phone number) to GM.  Your choice must be made within seven (7) days of your Vehicle Delivery Date. GM will send you an email invitation to complete an EV Install Form. The personal information on the EV Install Form must match the information provided to your Dealer and stated on your purchase order. Please review all terms on the EV Install Form before submission. If you are pursuing the Standard Installation offer, provide all requested information including description of your garage, electrical panel specifications and location, desired plug location, confirm receipt of HOA, landlord, or other third-party approvals, and submit photos of your garage layout, electrical panel, and charging location. Uploading inappropriate, obscene, or offensive photos is strictly prohibited; GM has the sole and exclusive discretion to disqualify any Customer from this Promotion in the event such photos are uploaded. The Customer is responsible for obtaining all necessary HOA, landlord, and other third-party approvals prior to submitting the EV Install Form. By submitting the EV Install Form, you consent to GM sharing the personal information you provide GM in the EV Install Form, including but not limited to uploaded pictures, contact information and other personal information with Qmerit for the purposes set forth in this Promotion. The personal information shared with Qmerit will be handled in accordance with Qmerit Terms of Use and Privacy Statement.

The EV Install Form will assist in determining if your residence meets the Standard Installation requirements for the Home Charging Outlet. For those Customers desiring a Standard Installation or Installation Credit, Qmerit will find and select a local, suitably skilled, qualified, insured, and licensed Installer to complete the installation. Once Qmerit has selected your Installer, Qmerit will provide their business name address, phone number, and email address to you and will provide the Installer with your name, address, phone number, and email address. Your Installer will reach out via phone to review the details submitted in the EV Install Form and confirm if the data submitted meets the qualifications for the Standard Installation or Installation Credit offers. You will then receive an email from Qmerit asking you to confirm that the Installer can perform the necessary work. Each Installer will secure all necessary permitting, in accordance with local applicable law, on your behalf. Once all required permits are secured, the Installer will schedule your Installation. Once Installation is complete, the Installer will submit confirmation to Qmerit. If the Customer receives the Installation and proceeds to cancel its order for an Eligible Vehicle before the Vehicle is delivered to the Customer, the Customer will be responsible for reimbursing GM the total amount of credit paid on the Customer’s behalf, up to $1,500.00, direct to GM, upon GM’s request.

Installation must be completed within 180 days of your Eligible Vehicle Delivery Date.
