Official summary

An incorrect software version exists in the transmission control module (TCM). If the vehicle's last drive mode was Sport ('S') mode and the vehicle is restarted within 10 seconds, the vehicle will not switch back to Drive ('D') mode as it should. Update the transmission control module software.

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.
