Official summary

During cold start, the engine ECU may order inappropriate fuel amounts which may cause engine noise. This campaign bulletin instructs dealers to reprogram the ECM with new software on all affected vehicles. In rare cases, if the vehicle exhibits an engine knocking noise, the engine may need to be replaced.

What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
