The study of chaos bounds offers significant insights regarding the thermalization process, quantum information flow, and the stability of the gravitational system. In this work, we examine the Lyapunov exponent and potential chaos bound violations in Yang-Mills AdS black holes, AdS black holes with massive gravity, and ModMax AdS black holes to uncover the association between quantum information, thermalization, and gravitational stability. We explicitly compute the Lyapunov exponent using the Jacobian matrix method, which allows us to investigate the roles of angular momentum, electric charge, and the normalization constant in determining orbital equilibrium and its stability. Our analysis reveals that chaos-bound violations are highly spacetime dependent. In the case of ModMax AdS black holes, the chaos bound remains valid throughout the full parameter ranges, highlighting the stabilizing influence of nonlinear electrodynamics. On the other hand, in AdS black holes arising in massive gravity and Yang-Mills theories, chaos-bound violation occurs primarily near the horizon within specific parameter domains, while at finite distances the bound remains satisfied. Additionally, our analysis shows a dual influence of angular momentum. These results demonstrate the model dependence of chaos bounds, with their preservation and violations serving as probes of the black holes’ microstructure and stability.
