If you purchased in the US "the first two service visits are free"
Actually Chevy pays for them to get you established with the dealer, habit of taking it to them for service.

Your assumption is correct, the only service the bolt requires at 7500 miles is the tire rotation. If you prefer to do it yourself you can, the only risk you take is if you ever wish to file a claim for "tire wear" under the tire warranty they can demand proof of proper rotation.

The "required services" are listed in the owners manual on page 311-313, and I think that statement is misleading, as I have the receipt for my first service and the only listed item on the paperwork is "tire rotation"

Be aware that after you rotate the tires you need a tool that reassigns the TPMS to the correct location. Otherwise, when your left front tire reads low, it's really the back right tire that needs a blow.

Otherwise, I think they inspect your cabin air filter and twiddle their thumbs a lot.
 
I took mine to the dealer. Made an appointment
for the " free 7,500 mile service, please."
Had a cup of coffee, shot the breeze with the
salesman, talked to the tech a little bit about
electric cars, and wasted an enjoyable 30 minutes.
The service manager was scratching his head.
"I'm sorry, sir, but it looks like the 7,500 mile
service is nothing but a tire rotation." I said, "Yep." :D
