# Service bulletin A171449 2028440\- 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. - Type: Service bulletin - NHTSA id: 10122332 - Published by NHTSA: 2017\-11\-08 - Manufacturer's number: A171449 2028440\- - Manufacturer's date: 2014\-04\-03 - NHTSA component: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/PANEL ## NHTSA's summary Supersedes Technical Service Bulletin Group 17 number 12\-26 dated January 20, 2012. When the vehicle is completely refueled, the vehicle range \(?distance to empty?\) that is displayed is different than the vehicle range that was displayed the last time the vehicle was completely refueled. The displayed vehicle range drops inconsistently. After the vehicle is refueled, the displayed vehicle range does not change for a long period of time. When the vehicle is driven on hilly roads for a long period of time, the displayed vehicle range suddenly changes by a significant amount. There are no DTCs related to fuel senders stored in the instrument cluster control module, J285 \(address word 17\). This condition does not involve or affect the accuracy of the fuel level indicator, but only the estimated distance to empty display on the on\-board computer. ## The document - [NHTSA's copy of the document (PDF)](https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2014/MC-10122332-9999.pdf) - [If that address does not open, try this one](https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2014/MC-10122332-0001.pdf) The document is the manufacturer's.
