iPhone 6 battery level indicator says 16% and jumps to 60% as soon as it's plugged in

iPhone 6, with latest iOS installed - 9.3.1

When phone is in use, not connected to charger, all is OK until the indicator shows about 60% battery, the nit will suddenly drop to about 15%.  If we plug it into a charger it immediately goes back to 60%.  We assume that the 15% is a false reading.

We have already done a reset and restore.  The tech at the Genius Bar suggested a DFU restore, which seems a bit risky.

Will a DFU help with this?  Is there any other suggestion that might fix the problem?  

Thanks.
