REVISON 3 OF BULLETIN 2014-2 CONFIRMING THAT THIS BULLETIN HAS BEEN SUPERSEDED BY WARRANTY BULLETIN 2014-8.
Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers. Older model years have had longer for reports to accumulate.
