Service bulletin LI82.85-P-069851

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

High-frequency interference noise may be heard from the speakers while driving. This complaint only occurs when "voice amplification" is active. Coupling noise of microphone signal in voice amplification. Intermediate remedy: The interference noise can be remedied by deactivating voice amplification: "Home" -> "Settings" -> "System" -> "Audio" and de-select "Voice amplification to rear" to switch off the function (see attachment). Note: To activate or deactivate the function, the ignition must be switched on, seat belts (at rear and front) must be fitted and the doors, windows and roof must be closed. Permanent solution: Perform software update of MBUX multimedia system (A26/17) to E419.5 (available from 06/19) or greater. Deactivate the ‘voice amplification’ feature. Inform customer of function and effects of additional sounds caused by driving over bumps or uneven road surfaces.
