Defect

The drive motor inverter control computer software is incorrectly programmed.

As a result, the warning lamp illuminates and, in the worst case, the drive motor shuts down, rendering the vehicle inoperable.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, reprogram the drive motor inverter control computer software.
