Defect
Certain vehicles may not comply with Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 101 – Location and Identification of Controls and Displays. These vehicles may have been built with an Instrument Panel Control (“IPC”) software error that may illuminate multiple malfunction indicator lights (“tell-tales”) when no malfunction or indicated vehicle condition is present. This issue may occur when the fuel indicator is reading “Low Range” fuel. Driving with a false tell-tale may mask a truly active tell-tale and result in the driver not being aware of actual malfunctions which could affect vehicle performance and increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property.
Safety Risk
No risk description available.
Remedy
Dealers will update the IPC software.
