Angry Took my new focus to McAlpine Dealer came back with 6 different DTC Codes!

I took my 2012 SE Sedan with 1500km for a vibration on the dash and roll-back got back a car shifting weird and with 6 DTC (diagnostic trouble codes) showing up.
Great Job McAlpine!
Here is a video of the codes.

I'll just clean up the title and merge the two threads as it would help to keep the conversation together.

The 6 codes are:

Control Module Communication Bus "A" Off
Lost Communication With Body Control Module
Lost Communication With Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) Control Module
Lost Communication With Power Steering Control Module
Lost Communication With Restraints Control Module
Lost Communication With TCM

These are stored codes in the IPC (Instrument Panel Cluster) module.
You can ignore them (the tech probably failed to clear them when your car was serviced).

Hi powermax,

Just a heads up: I've responded to your PMs. If you have any other questions, don't hesitate to ask.

Thanks!
