Certain vehicles equipped with automatic transmssions have been manufactured with an electronic fuel injection control unit (ECU) that may cause the engine idle speed to increase by approximately 550 rpm while the vehicle is stopped in gear. Although the vehicle can be held stationary with the brakes, the unexpected high idle speed could create the potential for loss of vehicle control. Correction: The ECU will be replaced.
