SUBJECT
MODELS 216, 221
MODEL YEARS 2007-2008
INSTALL SOFTWARE FOR DYNAMIC AND/OR MULTI-CONTOUR SEAT CONTROL MODULES
This Service Campaign has been initiated because DCAG has determined that the affected vehicles may have possible malfunctions in the multi-contour seat modules which may result in inflation or deflation of the air cushions without obvious cause. Dealers will update the control module software and, if multi-contour seat fault codes are indicated, then replace ONLY the appropriate parts identified for the multi-contour seats.
The software update is 100%, while the part replacement rate is estimated to be less than 1%.
Dealers may order parts as required.
Prior to performing this Service Campaign:
- Please check VMI to determine if the vehicle is involved in the Campaign and if it has been previously repaired. If necessary, repair the subject vehicle during the vehicle's next service.
- Please review the entire Service Campaign bulletin and follow the procedure steps exactly as described.
Please note that Recall and Service Campaigns do not expire and may also be performed on a vehicle with a vehicle status indicator.
Approximately 15 vehicles are affected.
