Summary

Lack of Power When Accelerating in Cold Temperatures: Some customers may complain about lack of power when accelerating in cold temperatures (below 0 degrees F). To avoid slippage, engine power is restricted in cold temperatures, even when the road condition is not slippery. To eliminate this concern, the PCM and TCM control software has been modified to restrict engine power only when tire slippage is detected between the front and rear wheels in cold temperatures. Customers having this concern should have their vehicle repaired using the following repair procedure.

Owners of these vehicles have filed 92 complaints in the electrical category.
