Service bulletin PIT5511A

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.

The Driver Information Center is designed to dim with high temperature exposure. This is done to protect the Driver Information Center from damage.
