THIS IS CAUSED BY ERROR DETECTION LOGIC OF THE PCM. TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM, THE CONTROL LOGIC OF THE PCM HAS BEEN CHANGED. |
| 09-006-15-2904A | 2017-05-17. Service bulletin. SEATS:FRONT ASSEMBLY:POWER ADJUST. SOME VEHICLES (WITHOUT POWER SEATS) MAY EXHIBIT A DRIVER SEAT THAT GRADUALLY MOVES DOWN BY ITSELF. THIS CONCERN MAY BE CAUSED WHEN A LOAD, WHICH IS APPLIED TO THE SEAT DURING BRAKING, EXCEEDS A CERTAIN LEVEL THAT COULD IMPACT THE RETAINING MECHANISM OF THE SEAT LIFTER CAUSING THE SEAT TO GRADUALLY MOVE DOWNWARD. TO ELIMINATE THIS CONCERN, THE PLAY IN THE LIFT MECHANISM GEARS HAS BEEN REDUCED. |
| 09-023-15-3024 | 2017-05-17. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT ADAPTIVE/MOBILITY. SOME CUSTOMERS MAY COMPLAIN ABOUT A LOOSE REAR CONSOLE LID (A). THIS MAY BE CAUSED BY HINGE PINS COMING PARTIALLY OFF (B) OR COMPLETELY OFF. |

SOME CUSTOMERS MAY COMPLAIN THAT THE FUEL GAUGE SHOWS EMPTY AND/OR THE DISTANCE-TO-EMPTY ON THE MULTI-INFORMATION DISPLAY (MID) INDICATES “0” WITH A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF FUEL REMAINING IN THE TANK.THIS MAY BE A NORMAL OPERATION OF THE FAIL-SAFE FUNCTION:1.IF FOREIGN MATERIAL (CONTAINED IN A POOR-QUALITY FUEL) ADHERES TO THE FUEL GAUGE SENDER UNIT, THE FAIL-SAFE FUNC-TION INITIATES BY FORCING THE FUEL GAUGE AND THE DISTANCE-TO-EMPTY TO INDICATE “ZERO FUEL AMOUNT”.2.IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE FOREIGN MATERIAL IS DISLODGED BY SHAKING OF THE FUEL DURING DRIVING OR REFUELING, THE FUEL GAUGE WILL RETURN TO A NORMAL READING, BUT THE DISTANCE-TO-EMPTY WILL CONTINUE TO READ “0” UNTIL THE NEXT REFUEL-ING OF 3 US GALLONS (10 LITERS) OR MORE.TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM THE FOLLOWING CHANGE HAS BEEN MADE:1.THERE IS NO MASS-PRODUCTION CHANGE TO PREVENT ADHESION OF FOREIGN MATERIAL TO THE FUEL GAUGE SENDER UNIT. SO THE FACT REMAINS UNCHANGED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE AND THE DISTANCE-TO-EMPTY INDICATE “ZERO FUEL AMOUNT” WHEN FOREIGN MATERIAL ADHERES TO THE FUEL GAUGE SENDER UNIT, AND THE FAIL-SAFE FUNCTION INITIATES.2.TO EQUALIZE THE RECOVERY TIMING FROM THE FAIL-SAFE MODE, THE LOGIC HAS BEEN CHANGED SO THAT THE DISTANCE-TO-EMPTY RECOVERS FROM “0” TO A NORMAL READING IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE FOREIGN MATERIAL IS DISLODGED (AT THE SAME TIME AS THE FUEL GAUGE). |
