I have a 2nd level, variant human, Hex blade Warlock with Polearm master feat. The Actions section allocates the charisma bonus to Hit/DC and Damage correctly for my Glaive(Hex weapon), however The Bonus Actions section it does not allocate the charisma bonus to Hit/DC and Damage to the Bonus attack granted by the feat…When using the hex weapon, shouldn’t the Charisma apply to the 1d4 attack bonus action too?
Hello WOJANI! The Polearm Master feat is not currently able to locate any special effects outside of the feat you may get to apply to its effects. I'm going to go ahead and mark this as a "Request" for now, thank you so much for sharing!

I've answered a few threads like this in the past. It also doesn't adjust for magic weapons or monk weapons.
As Mellie said, it is a technical limitation of how the feat works. The BA will even show up if you don't have a polearm if that is any indication.
Just my 2 cents, since this is being taken as a "request".
- It also does not apply the bonuses to Opportunity Attacks.
- It does not apply the extra damage from Lifedrinker.
- It counts the reach for BA and OA as 5ft instead of 10ft.
Thanks!
