 EVgo knows that DC fast charging is still rough, so it’s fixing more stations

It's a tricky thing, telling customers that your stations are far from perfect.

LOL, not so tricky, since users already know. 
 @872ab8e1 ABB should really be all over this. 
 @872ab8e1 I just completed a 900 mile road trip and the non-Tesla charging infrastructure was abysmal. Glad to see them focusing on reliability but it’s insane how far behind these other companies are.

Also, the only EVGo station near my house has been broken for nearly a year… So they don’t seem to be making much progress. I report it as broken every few months and am met with apathy by their support. They don’t seem to care.
