PURPOSE Certain vehicles with CVT‐8 transmissions may exhibit a shudder condition at low speeds (10 – 40 mph), or a surge/flare of engine rpm at higher speeds. This may be caused by a malfunctioning of the CVT’s hydraulic pressure control software. In the worst case scenario, with continued driving under these conditions, the CVT belt may become damaged, causing a warning light to turn on. " " This campaign bulletin instructs dealers to refer to SR-16-006 to reprogram the CVT-ECU on all affected vehicles. In the rare case that the customer informs the dealer they have experienced a shudder or surge condition, dealers are instructed to reprogram the CVT-ECU, then follow the procedure for shudder/surge condition as outlined in this bulletin.
