Hey all,
I have a 2016 Malibu 1LT, and my Engine light came on yesterday. I ran the codes, and they came up as P171A and P171B, but couldn't find much information about these codes. I do have an appointment set for tomorrow with the dealership, but want to know what I'm about to get into here.
Any information about these codes are appreciated!
Additional info: This particular model was recalled due to a part that could potentially cause a cracked piston. The dealership did a full oil change and updated some software I believe. This recall was completed about two weeks ago.
UPDATE 1: My friend actually works at my dealership and was able to get some additional information. He said that I need a new Transmission Control Module, which, in my case, is covered by the warranty still.
He also did mention that he'll set me up with a loaner car for the duration of the repair, but did not give an estimated time of completion.
I'll update again when I get some more info.
