What is wrong

Issue:

On certain vehicles equipped with a 1.5 L turbo engine, a software error in the engine control module may disable the fuel injectors. This could cause the engine not to start. In rare cases, this could also cause the engine to suddenly stall without warning.

Safety Risk:

A sudden loss of engine power could increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions:

The company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a dealer to reprogram the engine control module.
