all I can say about this update thing...it is 3 years later, they still don't know what they are doing Mechanics are not computer techs, in the case of computers that are PC in their nature. I have a degree in computer science and have been building repairing and coding since 1979. I should have done or at least watched what they were trying to accomplish. They also said they could not do it and that in order for the 'chime recall' to be finished I needed a new radio.??!! The radio worked. still works, but if it wasn't having a no crank issue intermittently. that was directly related to the key in ignition/chime problem.(the ONLY problem ever unrelated to wear) I wouldn't have bothered.
With the key in the ignition, no radio on, and waiting for a period of time (30min to an hour), in the car, with this set of criteria, the car won't crank. Until I lock and unlock the doors a few times, then get in and poof it starts. Low battery / drain protection kicks in I was told. This was an engineers findings back in early 2014. It never manifested itself again ( we didnt sit in the car with the key in the ignition.). Then the recall came and I called to ask if this would eliminate my problem as well as the problem listed as the reason for the recall. They agreed that it could. I should have known better.
