Subject: Special Service Campaign (SSC) C0W
2013 Model Year Scion FR-S Vehicles Registered in the 12 CA Emission Standard States Engine Control Module (ECM) Update

Background:
On certain 2013 Model Year Scion FR-S vehicles, the On Board Diagnostics II (OBD-II) System may need to be updated to meet the regulations set forth by the California Air Resources Board (CARB). An update for the Engine Control Module (ECM) to improve the monitoring parameters within the OBD-II system is now available. The correction ensures that the “Check Engine Light” will illuminate should an abnormal condition develop (such as the engine coolant not reaching or maintaining the proper operating temperature).

- States that have adopted the CARB emission standards (“12 CARB States”) for the 2013 Model Year and covered by this campaign: CA, CT, MA, MD, ME, NJ, NY, OR, PA, RI, VT and WA. - This condition does not affect fuel economy or vehicle performance.

Remedy:
Any authorized Scion or Toyota dealer will inspect the calibration of the Engine Control Module (ECM) and if necessary update the ECU at no charge to the customer.

Owner Notification:
The owner notification will commence in mid-December 2012. Please note that only owners of vehicles currently registered in the 12 CARB States are covered by this campaign and will be notified.
