Service bulletin 18357

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

Special Coverage. On some vehicles, the vehicle may inadvertently shift into manual mode and, depending on the vehicle?s speed, the transmission will automatically downshift to first or second gear, resulting in a safe, but unwanted vehicle deceleration. If this occurs, the driver will not be able to shift out of manual mode until the vehicle. is turned off and back on again. The vehicle will also set diagnostic trouble codes P0816 and P1876. Dealers are to remove and replace the shifter assembly. The repairs will be made at no charge to the customer
