Bulletin Summary

This Preliminary Information communication advises the technician that the When the engine is cold, a light rattle noise may be heard from under the hood at 1,100 - 1,200 RPM. This noise is a result of normal drive belt and tensioner resonance that may be amplified on a cold engine. As a result, this noise will be isolated to the drive belt tensioner area. This noise is most noticeable on a cold engine and typically, is not noticeable on a warm engine. If this concern is experienced, it is currently considered a normal operating characteristic of the hybrid drive belt tensioner system and system loads from the hybrid starter/generator, and no repairs should be performed. 

About Technical Service Bulletins

A Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) is a document issued by a vehicle manufacturer to its dealers, describing a known issue with a specific vehicle or set of vehicles and the recommended procedure to fix it. Unlike recalls, TSBs are not mandatory and are typically only performed if an owner reports the related issue. However, TSBs can be an indicator of common problems with a vehicle.
