Transport Canada lists: Verano 2014 · Cruze 2014

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the inflator for the side curtain airbag could rupture at the inflator weld joint and cause the side curtain airbag to inflate without a crash. Note: This is an expansion of Transport Canada recall nos. 2023-520 and 2023-693. Certain vehicles that were repaired under those recalls, also require this repair.

Why it matters

A side curtain airbag that inflates without a crash could create a risk of injury.

What the dealer will do

General Motors will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the left and/or right-side curtain airbag(s).

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, insulation on the engine block heater power cord may become damaged if the cord is handled during very cold days (temperatures below -25C). This could create an electrical shock hazard, which could result in personal injury.

26 June 2014

Transport Canada lists: Cruze 2013–2014

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the driver's (frontal) airbag inflator was built with an incorrect part which could cause the inflator to rupture during a deployment. In a crash, this may cause airbag components to separate, which could allow fragments to be propelled toward vehicle occupants, increasing the risk of injury. In some cases, the airbag may not inflate. Failure of the driver airbag to fully deploy during a crash (where deployment is warranted) could increase the risk of personal injury to the seat occupant.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will replace the driver's (frontal) airbag.

31 March 2014

Transport Canada lists: Cruze 2013–2014

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the passenger side halfshaft could fracture and separate. If this were to occur while the vehicle is being driven, it could result in a loss of motive power. If this were to occur while the vehicle is parked on an incline without the parking brake applied, it could result in unintended vehicle movement. Both situations could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or property damage.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will replace affected halfshafts. Note: This recall supersedes recalls 2013323. Some vehicles that were inspected and/or repaired under the previous recall will need to be re-inspected and repaired if necessary.

Transport Canada lists: Regal 2014 · Verano 2014 · Cruze 2014 · Impala 2014 · and 1 more

What is wrong

Certain vehicles equipped with automatic transmissions may fail to conform to Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 102 - Transmission Control Functions and CMVSS 114 - Theft Protection and Rollaway Prevention. The shift cable adjuster may have been damaged at time of assembly and could disengage, causing the transmission to remain in a gear position different from the one indicated in the instrument panel. If the shift cable were to disengage while driving, upon stopping the vehicle, a driver could move the transmission range selector lever to the PARK position and remove the key, without the transmission being in PARK. If the parking brake is not set, the vehicle could roll, potentially resulting in a crash increasing the risk of injury and/or property damage.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will inspect and install a revised adjuster and clip if necessary.
