Default Product Update: Gauge Control Module (Canadian Version)

Today, I receive this in my mail:



I know it's the 62 miles (100km) bug. But I never heard of Canadian version of the hybrid having the bug. Also, I really don't think I have it. I never notice any reset of my L/100km every time it increase 100km. Plus, I never reset my trip B wich match my lifetime L/100km calculated manually.

There is no mention of my VIN# on this letter. I think they just sent it to everybody.

What I should do? Since I don't have the problem, should I avoid someone playing in my dash and prevent any dash noise to start after it's done?

They mention it's a software problem but they also say that they need to replace the tachometer gauge module.

Thanks.

When did you buy your HCH?

My dealer told me that models manufactured after January 2006 should be 62 mile bug free.

Cheers!

IF you don't percieve a problem forget about it.
Even if your car has the bug it does not affect the actual MPG you get.

Need fewer troops to support.
Drive a hybrid.
Best tank 71.65 MPG.

Before this car I spent two years learning hypermiling on my 2004 HCH1.
