What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the airbag electronic control unit could be damaged by an electrical fault. This could cause the airbag system not to work properly in a crash. It could also result in a deployment of the airbags and/or seat belt pretensioners without a crash.

Why it matters

Airbags that do not work properly in a crash could create an increased risk of injury. Airbags or seat belt pretensioners that deploy without a crash could create a risk of injury and also increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

The company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a dealer to inspect the airbag control module. If an electrical fault is detected, the airbag control module will be replaced.

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the windshield may not have been properly bonded to the car body. This could allow the glass panel to separate from the vehicle in the event of a crash which would increase the risk of injury to the occupants.

What is wrong

Certain vehicles may have been equipped with a front passenger airbag that does not meet specifications.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will replace front passenger airbag module.

25 January 2017

Transport Canada lists: 718 2017 · 911 2017

What is wrong

On certain vehicles and replacement engines, the fastening screws for the fuel collection pipes could shear off due to stress corrosion cracking. If this occurs, fuel could leak into the engine compartment which, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire causing injury and/or damage to property.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will replace the fastening screws of each of the collection pipes with new and improved screws.

What is wrong

Certain vehicles may have been equipped with side airbag inflators (located in the front seat backrests) that do not meet specifications. This could cause affected airbags to fail to deploy properly in the event of a lateral crash, which could increase the risk of injury to the occupants.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will replace affected airbag modules.
