| 122-Y8J4E-11 | 2017-12-14. Service bulletin. ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE:GASOLINE:TURBO/SUPERCHARGER. Information: Debris from the production process can cause the check valves in the oil supply and return lines for the turbocharger to stick open. This allows either too much oil to enter or not enough oil to exit the turbocharger and will overwhelm the seal. Action required: DO NOT replace the turbocharger(s). Remove the pressure pipes from the turbochargers to determine which side is stuck open. Replace that line. |

| 122-W4G8S-10 | 2017-10-15. Service bulletin. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:12V/24V/48V BATTERY; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. Technical Concern: By design, the vehicle gateway allows certain vehicle features to time-out, in stages. This allows the vehicle to sleep. One feature that can time-out is the 12 V DC power point (cigarette lighter) in the center console area. One of the recommended methods of using the battery maintainer is to plug the battery maintainer into this power point. If this power point becomes disabled, it will not allow current flow from the battery maintainer to the vehicle, the vehicle battery will not trickle charge, and the battery maintainer will eventually shut off. |
