Service bulletin L-18-04-01 R02
A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

NHTSA's summary
GEM has observed instances where customers operating in cold weather are reporting vehicles slowing down at a higher state of charge, as if batteries are low. This Team Tip was released to inform dealers that there is a Polaris BMC reflash available for vehicles equipped with AGM batteries to factor ambient temperature into the state of charge reading. This communication also shows how to calculate a customer’s estimated range based on ambient temperature for vehicles equipped with flooded batteries.
