CHECK INTAKE MANIFOLD AND REPLACE IF NECESSARY; INSTALL UPDATED ENGINE CONTROL MODULE SOFTWARE (M273 ENGINE)
This Service Campaign has been initiated because DCAG has determined that on affected vehicles engine running characteristics can be improved with the installation of a modified intake manifold. Dealers will check the production date of the intake manifold and replace if necessary. Additionally, updated engine control module software will also be installed in all affected vehicles.
Prior to performing this Service Campaign:
- Please check VMI to determine if the vehicle is involved in the Campaign and if it has been previously repaired. If necessary, repair the subject vehicle during the vehicle's next service.
- Please review the entire Service Campaign bulletin and follow the procedure steps exactly as described.
Please note that Recall and Service Campaigns do not expire and may also be performed on a vehicle with a vehicle status indicator.
Approximately 11,352 vehicles are affected.
