Affected Component: POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:TORQUE CONVERTER

Summary
13120A - Service Update (revised population). The torque converter clutch solenoid in the TECHM can stick due to debris in the transmission. When the vehicle is at the end of a coast-down, as the vehicle is coming to a stop, a stuck solenoid will fail to release the torque converter clutch. This keeps the engine directly connected to the driven wheels. As the vehicle stops, the engine speed will be pulled down below normal idle speed and the engine may stall. The vehicle can be immediately restarted and driven. Dealers are to reprogram the transmission control module with a revised calibration to correct this condition.
