Service bulletin PIP5025F

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 have excessive oil consumption and/or that they have to add oil between oil changes. Technician should reprogram the Engine Control Module with the latest TIS2web calibrations to adjust the engine oil life monitor to a maximum of 7,500 miles. Technician should also inspect for any obvious oil leaks that may explain the oil consumption complaint, and repair as necessary.
