Summary
TSB: Rev1 Warranty information has been updated. Some 2011 - 2012 CT 200h vehicles may exhibit a vibration due to rough idle and/or tapping noise from HV transaxle at cold start. The Check Engine Light may also illuminate with (DTC) P0401 (Exhaust Gas Recirculation Flow Insufficient Detected). Due to excess carbon build-up at the valve assembly, the valve will stick causing the engine RPM to fluctuate. Follow the procedures in this bulletin to address this condition.

Owners of these vehicles have filed 5 complaints in the engine category.
