Official summary

Issue: Customer has observed 'Check Engine Light' - also known as 'Engine Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)' - illuminated in the instrument cluster & DTC P2096-00 and/or P2097-00 is evident in the PCM. A concern in the PCM diagnostic software has been discovered, which when combined with a specific customer drive cycle can lead to the false flagging of this DTC. Exhaust system leaks outside design specification can increase the likelihood of repeat failures.

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.
