Details

On certain hybrid models equipped with direct-shift gearboxes, corrosion can occur inside the gearbox due to incompatible gearbox lubricant additives, causing electrical shorts and blowing gearbox fuses.

This could result in a loss of motive power, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property.

Correction: Dealers will replace the existing gearbox lubricant with an updated formulation.
