The Supplemental Restraint Systems \(SRS\) Front Passenger’s Seat Occupancy Capacitive Interior Sensor \(CIS\) Mat for defects in materials and/or workmanship that causes a false seat occupancy alert to occur has been extended to 10 years / 120,000 miles as determined from the vehicle's original in\-service / first delivery date.
- [B640422](/bulletins/10250374.md), 2024-03-02, Service bulletin: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; VISIBILITY:DEFROSTER/DEFOGGER/HVAC SYSTEM. An interference noise \(groaning noise\) can be heard from within the heating and air\-conditioning unit in thecenter of the instrument panel. The groaning noise always occurs when either a ventilation flap, air stratification flap or the recirculated airflap moves to a different position. Due to the complex design of the heating and air\-conditioning unit, the kinematics causing it \(top or bottom,left or right\) may not be able to be precisely located. Depending on the vehicle model, the number of servomotors \(and the associated kinematics unit\) varies.Various models use either 2 or 3 servomotors.
- [B510819](/bulletins/10249437.md), 2024-02-01, Service bulletin: VISIBILITY:POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. The basic conditions for initializing the power windows are not met.
