Neither concern has a direct impact to vehicle exhaust or evaporative emissions. However, either condition could affect proper operation of the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL). Problem description updated.

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.
