Defect

On vehicles equipped with a 7-speed DCT automatic transmission, an error in the engine control unit (ECU) software causes the engine output to fall below the motor charging load when the accelerator is released at low vehicle speed, reducing engine speed. This may cause the engine to run rough and stall. Restart and continued driving are possible after the stall.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, reprogram the engine control unit (ECU) software.
