This problem could also cause the engine warning system to turn on and give limited throttle response. Note: This recall replaces recall M22-014 (Transport Canada Recall No. 2022-099). Vehicles that received a software update under that recall also require this repair. Safety Risk: A sudden engine stall could increase the risk of a crash.
