Defect
On vehicles equipped with a manual transmission, the ignition timing control software in the engine control computer is incorrect. When the throttle is fully closed and the clutch lever is held with a narrow grip span, ignition timing may retard excessively. This causes engine speed to drop and may result in an engine stall.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, reprogram the engine control computer with the corrected/updated software.
