The VIN doesn't contain a build date but I believe I have seen higher build numbers than that with the problem. Regardless, the problem is there and the vehicle is under waranty. The dealer has to fix it!
Here is the VIN code FYI anyway, and now it will be listed for anybody else's future reference:
Keep us posted on the results. Good luck.
