Service bulletin PIP5379A

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

NHTSA's summary

This Preliminary Information communication provides information to the technician about vehicles that may have an idle hanging high after a throttle is snapped. This concern may be caused by two issues. The first issue requires a gear shift interaction; this one is an extended hang typically around 2000 rpm. There was also an issue with a slower than normal RPM decay after a tip-in during catalyst light-off. The first concern Engineering is working on a fix. The second concern can be fixed by updating the Engine Control Module.
