During the evaluation of the said vehicle models, findings state that the current software installed in the ECU causes high stress to the Drive Pulley Shaft inside the vehicle's Continuous Variable Transmission (CVT) which may result to some breakage during the operation. If not updated immediately, the Drive Pulley Shaft may break which may result to some serious problem to the vehicle.
It is said that the Drive Pulley Shaft may break during high stress operation, since Drive Pulley Shaft is a mechanical part/device it's more on part replacement dapat kung ire-recall nila but (only my opinion), they opted to downgrade or decrease the torque from the drive shaft through software/firmware update. In this case, it's not a software bug but a mechanical part na posibleng bumigay during high operation.
So I think if you're asking about the difference, possible na mas humina ang hatak ng sasakyan compare sa hindi pa na-update na software. Again, just my 2 cents.
Hopefully, those who happened to voluntarily submitted their unit can share their experience.
Anyway it's just my observation.
