Transport Canada lists: Equator 2009

What is wrong

On certain vehicles operated in areas of heavy road salt usage, the front Crash Zone Sensor (CZS) may rust internally. This could result in the non-deployment of the driver and passenger front airbags during a vehicle crash, increasing the risk of personal injuries or death in certain crash conditions.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will replace the Crash Zone Sensor.
