# Service bulletin SSM 53601

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

Some 2020\-2023 Explorer/Aviator, 2020\-2025 Police Interceptor Utility, 2020\-2025 Escape/Corsair, 2022\-2025 Maverick, and 2024\-2025 Nautilus vehicles equipped with a hybrid powertrain may exhibit an illuminated malfunction indicator lamp \(MIL\) with diagnostic trouble code \(DTC\) P2450:00 stored in the powertrain control module \(PCM\). This may be due to an evaporative emission system concern or may also be caused by the customer overfilling the fuel tank. If this condition occurs, perform normal diagnosis per Workshop Manual \(WSM\) Section, 303\-13 and repair as necessary. Inform the customer that the condition may have been caused by overfilling of the fuel tank and to not top\-off the fuel tank when the fuel pump nozzle automatically shuts off for the first time. Refer the customer to the Fuel and Refueling section of their Owner Manual for additional information.
