Official summary
CVT Software Update/Warranty Extension Voluntary Service Campaign ***** Campaign Summary***** Nissan is conducting a Voluntary Service Campaign to reprogram the Transmission Control Module (TCM) to improve CVT service diagnostics. This diagnostic software update will enhance the dealer's ability to diagnose customer concerns regarding Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) operation; it does not repair any symptoms nor alter the drive characteristics of the vehicle. Specifically, the diagnostic logic will store two new Diagnostic Trouble Codes when "Judder" symptoms occur on vehicles. - P17F
Vehicles covered
What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
