Summary
TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN: VCU SOFTWARE LOGIC UPGRADE (SA541) - This bulletin provides information to upgrade the software logic of the Vehicle Control Unit (VCU) on certain 2023MY EV6 GT (CV GT) vehicles produced from August 25, 2022 through July 20, 2023, to optimize the brake lamp ON/OFF logic to prevent momentary activation and deactivation of the brake lights when regenerative braking is in use while driving over uneven road surfaces (e.g. railroad crossings, raised pavement markers). This condition does not affect brake light activation when the brake pedal is depressed.

Owners of these vehicles have filed 105 complaints in the electrical category.
