Manufacturer summary
Original wording in English
This bulletin provides a diagnosis and repair procedure for DTC P172A and/or P0B0B. When either of these DTCs is stored, a leaking o-ring which seals the electric oil pump relief valve may allow CVT fluid to enter the pump?s electric motor. Although current Service Manual diagnostic procedures instruct replacement of multiple components, this information will help isolate the actual failed component for a more cost-effective repair. PRODUCTION CHANGE INFORMATION A change to the drive motor relief valve o-ring was incorporated into production on June 16, 2015 starting with VIN F*298545.
NHTSA manufacturer communications ↗Repeated filings are grouped only when make, bulletin number, publication date and complete summary agree. Original record numbers are retained. Older publications remain available, and an explicit later version is shown when established. Pre-1994 vehicle associations are separated from default results; an unspecified year does not mean all model years apply.
