B3211192020-04-20. Service bulletin. FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY; POWER TRAIN; AIR BAGS; STEERING. SPORADIC REDUCTION OF STEERING ASSISTANCE: This Service Information Bulletin (Revision 1) replaces SI B32 11 19 dated October 2019. The driver notices a reduction of steering assistance sporadically while in certain driving situations. Steering control is never lost when the reduction of assistance occurs. The fault may self-correct for no obvious reason or be eliminated with a terminal change/key cycle. There is no Check Control (CC) message when the issue occurs. Unfavorable software in the Electric Power Steering (EPS).
B1212192019-06-24. Service bulletin. POWER TRAIN; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; STEERING. The electrical machine electronics (EME) Printed Circuit Board (PCB) may not have been produced to specifications. In the event that the EME detects this condition it will shut down high-voltage electrical power. A shut down of high-voltage electrical power would result in a loss of propulsion increasing the risk of a crash. However the 12-volt electrical power remains functional to support power steering and braking.
B6105182018-08-06. Service bulletin. POWER TRAIN; EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL. SERVICE ACTION: KLE - CONVENIENCE CHARGING ELECTRONICS I01 REX: OBD relevant diagnoses of the KLE (convenience charging electronics) cannot be processed correctly because of a data transmission error in the EME (electrical machine electronics).
