Official summary

Customer may report that Electronic Stability Control (ESC) and Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) warnings are intermittently displayed in the instrument cluster. DTCs are stored in the ABS control module. During vehicle start-up, there may be a drop in voltage that causes the DTCs to be stored in the ABS control module. However, the power steering control module, J500 (address word 44), must be updated to correct this condition.

Vehicles covered

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.
