Vehicles produced from September 2008 to November 2008 with option 609 (Navigation System)

SITUATION

The radio integrated in the Car Information Computer (CIC) can have interference noises and/or the reception varies in certain areas.

CAUSE

The CIC is not coded correctly. The HD-Radio function is erroneously activated, but the HD-Radio symbol is not shown in the radio menu. As a result, the HD-Radio function cannot be deactivated.

[NEW] CORRECTION

Note that ISTA/P will automatically reprogram and code all programmable control modules that do not have the latest software.
