Transmission leak?

Coolant leak

While the cover was off I noticed red fluid on the bottom of the transmission.
Looks like it came from the top under the inverter?
Made a service appointment
Fluid was transmission as verified by service tech.
Just returned home without my Bolt,
They want my drive unit and HV cables to be sent back to gm so they can better determine if this is a one off issue or a sigh of a manufacturing problem.
The parts are on the way to the dealer and they will let me see the replacement process.
Back to driving my Honda Insight and Toyota Prius
