Official summary

Some 2026 model year bZ, bZ Woodland, and C-HR BEV vehicles may exhibit the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) U255221F associated with the level 3 DC fast charging. Under certain conditions, charging may either operate normally or experience failure, with a charging malfunction message displayed on the Multi-Information Display (MID). This condition is attributed to a control logic issue and potential voltage drop affecting Plug-In Charge Control Computer Assembly functionality. The control logic has been modified to reduce the possibility of this condition.

What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
