568 of 26,042 recalls from Transport Canada and NHTSA.
On certain cars, the right-front daytime running light (DRL) may not work or may not be bright enough to meet Canadian regulations.
A daytime running light that is dimmed or not working could make the car less visible to other drivers and increase the risk of a crash.
The company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their car to a dealer to replace the right headlight.
On certain Bonneville SE and SSE vehicles, the Lighting control modules may experience excessive current leakage due to damaged surface mounting capacitors. This could result in loss of head lamps and park lamps. Sudden loss of head lamp lighting could reduce driver visibility, which could result in a crash without prior warning.
No risk description available.
Headlamp control module will be replaced.
On certain vehicles, excessive amounts of silicon grease was applied to the telescoping mechanism of the steering column during vehicle assembly. As a result, oil can separate from the grease, which can form droplets that may fall onto the brake light switch. This can cause the brake light to fail, it may not be possible to shift the transmission from the Park position and/or the stop lamps may fail to illuminate, leading to a failure to alert a following vehicle of the driver's intent to stop, potentially resulting in a crash.
No risk description available.
Dealers will replace the brake light switch and connector housing, and install a cover to prevent oil from damaging the switch.
On certain vehicles, the brake lamps may not operate properly due to fretting corrosion in the Body Control Module (BCM) C2 wiring connector. Corrosion in the connector could cause the brake lamps to illuminate when the brake pedal has not been depressed, or cause them to not illuminate at all. Failure of the brake lamps to illuminate when the brake pedal is depressed may result in the following road users being unaware of the driver's intentions, as well as reducing vehicle conspicuity during hours of darkness. This could result in a vehicle crash causing personal injury or death.
No risk description available.
Dealers will apply a dielectric lubricant to repair and prevent corrosion inside the wiring connector.
Certain vehicles do not comply with CMVSS 108 - Lighting. The resinous reflex reflectors of the front parking/side marker lamps do not meet the photometric requirements of the Standard.
No risk description available.
Front parking/side marker lamps will be replaced on affected vehicles.
A REAR LAMP ON THESE VEHICLES MAY NOT ILLUMINATE BECAUSE THE METAL CAN IN THE LAMP SOCKET MOVES OR SEPARATES FROM THE PLASTIC SOCKET HOUSING. THIS CAN RESULT IN THE STOP/TAIL COMBINATION LAMP OR THE TURN SIGNAL LAMP NOT FUNCTIONING. THE CENTER HIGH MOUNTED STOP LAMP OPERATION IS NOT AFFECTED.
No risk description available.
BOTH REAR LAMP SOCKET ASSEMBLIES WILL BE REPLACED WITH AN IMPROVED ASSEMBLY.
Certain motorcycles may not comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 108 - Lighting System and Retroreflective Devices. If one of the front turn signal bulbs stops functioning, no indication would be provided to the driver, which is contrary to the requirements of the standard.
No risk description available.
Dealers will update vehicle software.
Over time, the backup lamp switch could corrode and fail. If this happens, the backup lamps will not turn on when the transmission is shifted into reverse and the shift position will not display. Additionally, for vehicles equipped with a rearview camera, the camera image will not appear on the display in the instrument cluster.
Backup lamps that do not work properly could cause a person not to recognize that the vehicle is backing. A rearview camera image that does not display could reduce a driver's ability to see behind the vehicle while backing up. These issues could increase the risk of a crash.
Subaru will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect, and if necessary, replace the backup lamp switch.
THESE VEHICLES DO NOT COMPLY WITH C.M.V.S.S. 108 - LIGHTING EQUIPMENT. VEHICLES WERE ASSEMBLED WITH A TRANSMISSION REVERSE SIGNAL SWITCH THAT COULD LEAK RESULTING IN LOSS OF ELECTRICAL CONTACT WHEN THE TRANSMISSION IS IN REVERSE. THIS CONDITION COULD PREVENT THE BACKUP WARNING SYSTEM (LIGHTS AND AUDIBLE ALARM) FROM OPERATING PROPERLY.
No risk description available.
REVERSE SIGNAL PRESSURE SWITCH WILL BE REPLACED.
Certain vehicles may not display the correct warning indicator when there is a problem with the brake system. As a result, the brake system malfunction indicator lamp ("BRAKE") might be displayed instead of the required indicator lamp ("(!)"). Canadian regulations require the use of a symbol, instead of text.
This small error does not affect the function of the brake system or the accuracy of the information displayed.
This is not a recall. Mercedes Benz has made changes to ensure that all new vehicles display the correct brake system malfunction indicator symbol.
On certain vehicles, the headlights may not be properly adjusted, and could be aimed too high.
Headlights that are not properly adjusted could cause glare for oncoming drivers. This could increase the risk of a crash.
Mercedes will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to check the headlight adjustment and correct it, if necessary.
Certain vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of CMVSS 108 - Headlamp vertical gradient.
No risk description available.
Dealers will install updated headlamp assemblies.
On certain vehicles, the low brake fluid warning lamp may not turn on if the brake fluid level gets too low. A low brake fluid level can cause reduced braking.
A driver that isn't aware of a low brake fluid level could experience reduced braking and an increased risk of a crash.
Tesla has released an over-the-air software update to fix this problem. There is no further action required if your vehicle has software release 2023.32.7 or a later release. Tesla will notify affected owners by email.
On certain motorcycles, the connector plug supplying power to the headlight might not be fully installed onto the prongs of the bulb. This could cause the plug to become dislodged from the headlight, resulting in a loss of forward lighting. Loss of forward lighting can create the potential for an accident resulting in injury or death.
No risk description available.
Dealer will ensure that the connector is installed fully onto the back of the headlight bulb.
THE TURN SIGNAL, REAR BRAKE LIGHT AND CARBURETOR WARMER CIRCUIT FUSE MAY BLOW DUE TO AN OVERLOAD CONDITION IF ALL THE COMPONENTS ON THE CIRCUIT ARE BEING USE AT THE SAME TIME. A BLOWN FUSE WILL RESULT IN FAILURE OF THE REAR LIGHTING EQUIPMENT.
No risk description available.
FUSES, FUSE BOX LABEL AND THE OWNER'S MANUAL WILL BE UPGRADED.
On certain vehicles, the headlamps may not be aimed correctly. As a result, the vehicles may not meet certain requirements of Canadian regulations.
Headlamps that aren't properly aimed can reduce visibility and could increase the risk of a crash.
Rivian will notify owners by mail and advise you to bring your vehicle to a Rivian service center to inspect and, if necessary, adjust the headlamps.
On certain vehicles, if the light switch is turned quickly, the tail lights may dim or turn off completely.
Tail lights that are dimmed or not working could make the vehicle less visible to other drivers and increase the risk of a crash.
The company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a dealer to update the body controller software.
On certain vehicles, the fuel gauge may indicate a greater quantity of fuel than what remains in the tank. As a result, if the tank were to become empty, engine stalling could occur which, in conjunction with traffic, road conditions, and driver's reactions, could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or property damage.
No risk description available.
Dealers will recalibrate the instrument cluster.
On certain vehicles, the ESC warning light may not remain on if a fault was detected on the previous key cycle. Instead, the warning light does not turn on until the vehicle starts to move. Canadian regulations require that the ESC warning light must turn on when the vehicle is started (under these conditions). Note: This problem can only happen if there is a fault related to the power steering system. The power steering warning light would stay on to advise that there is a fault with the steering system.
This small error does not affect vehicle safety.
This is not a recall. The company has made changes to the vehicle software to correct this issue on all new vehicles.
Certain vehicles may not comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 108 - Lighting System and Retroreflective Devices. The parking lamps are designed to operate at a higher light intensity to provide the required Daytime Running Lights (DRL) function. When the headlamps are activated, the parking lamp light intensity does not reduce from DRL intensity to parking lamp intensity as intended. The higher light intensity may adversely affect the vision of oncoming drivers during low light and night time conditions, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property.
No risk description available.
Dealers will update vehicle software.
