## What the official recall record says

The combination meter may fail to display warnings or indicators for engine oil pressure, engine coolant temperature or electrical charge. The absence of those displays increases crash risk and means the vehicles do not meet federal control-and-display requirements. The specified correction is an update to the combination meter software by a dealer at no charge.
