Defect

In the power control unit's DC-DC converter, inadequate manufacturing controls affecting a circuit component that regulates voltage supply to the battery may cause the unit to enter a control mode after a cold start and cut power to the battery. This results in insufficient battery charge, illuminating warning lights and warning messages. In the worst case, the vehicle may become inoperable.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, reprogram the power supply control software in the power control unit with the corrected/updated software.
