Service bulletin TSB-13-13-001

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

During cold engine start, rough or partial clutch operation may cause powertrain vibration similar to misfire conditions and cause false MIL illumination. New software revises improper Misfire Monitoring (P0300) threshold values to prevent these problems. This TSB provides a field fix procedure to address false MIL illumination with DTC P0300 (Random/multiple cylinder misfire detected) stored in the ECM.
