Chevy issues Customer Satisfaction Bulletin for reduced propulsion due to battery for the BOLT

After a few consumer complaints, Chevrolet has issued a Customer Satisfaction Bulletin for the 2017 Chevrolet Bolt.  While not rising to the level of a compulsory recall, Chevy is taking the additional step to inform all owners of 2017 Chevrolet Bolts via mail and even phoning a few.  

The Bulletin combats a "reduced propulsion" issue that is due to the battery and the repair is a ECM reprogram.  The bulletin details are:

GM Program #:  N172127150

Only certain vehicles will experience the battery low voltage cell condition.
