Rappels 2010 Subaru Impreza

• Coussin gonflable#20200012 janvier 2020

  23 159 unités visées

  Problème : Le présent rappel vise certains véhicules dont le générateur de gaz du coussin gonflable a été remplacé dans le cadre d'une campagne de rappel antérieure. Ce rappel constitue une réparation finale. L'exposition à long terme à une humidité absolue et à une température élevées, combinée à des cycles de température élevés, peut éventuellement dégrader le gaz propulseur contenu dans le coussin gonflable frontal du passager, ce qui pourrait entraîner le déploiement de ce dernier avec plus de force que la normale. Si le générateur de gaz du coussin gonflable se rompt, des fragments pourraient être propulsés vers les occupants du véhicule ou endommager l'ensemble du coussin gonflable, empêchant son bon fonctionnement. Risques pour la sécurité : Si le véhicule est impliqué dans une collision nécessitant le déploiement d'un coussin gonflable, le générateur de gaz du coussin gonflable pourrait se rompre et créer un risque de blessure. Mesures correctives : Les propriétaires seront avisés par la poste et on leur demandera d'apporter leur véhicule chez un concessionnaire pour faire inspecter le générateur de gaz du coussin gonflable avant du passager. Le module ou le générateur de gaz du coussin gonflable avant du passager sera remplacé au besoin. Remarque : Le climat canadien fait en sorte que le gaz propulseur se dégrade lentement. Le présent rappel est effectué par mesure de précaution afin de contrer les risques futurs. On s'attend à ce que tous les générateur de gaz des coussins gonflables soient remplacés avant que leur fonctionnement ne soit affecté.

• Circuit électrique#201919118 avril 2019

  100 unités visées

  Problème : Un problème concernant certains commutateurs d'allumage de remplacement pourrait permettre à la clé de bouger hors de la position « ON » pendant que le véhicule est en mouvement. Par conséquent, le moteur pourrait s'arrêter soudainement. De plus, le système de coussins gonflables pourrait mal fonctionner en cas d'accident. Remarque : Il s'agit d'une campagne de rappel volontaire qui n'est pas exigée par la Loi sur la sécurité automobile. Ce problème touche seulement certaines pièces utilisées pour le remplacement de pièces d'origine. Risque pour la sécurité : Une perte soudaine de puissance motrice pourrait augmenter les risques d'accident. Un système de coussins gonflables qui ne fonctionne pas adéquatement en cas d'accident pourrait augmenter les risques de blessures. Mesure corrective : L'entreprise avisera les propriétaires par la poste. Les propriétaires touchés devront amener leur véhicule chez un concessionnaire afin de faire inspecter le commutateur d'allumage, ainsi que de le faire remplacer au besoin.

• Freins#20191041 mars 2019

  135 814 unités visées

  Problème : L'interrupteur des feux de freinage de certains véhicules pourrait cesser de fonctionner, ce qui empêcherait les feux de freinage de s'allumer lorsque le conducteur serre les freins. Selon le modèle, cela pourrait empêcher de passer de la position de stationnement à la position d'arrêt, ou de démarrer le véhicule à l'aide du bouton-poussoir de démarrage. D'autres systèmes comme le système antiblocage des freins (ABS), le contrôle du comportement dynamique du véhicule (VDC) et/ou le système de commande par le regard pourraient également mal fonctionner. Risques pour la sécurité : Si les feux de freinage ne fonctionnent pas, il se peut que le conducteur derrière ne se rende pas compte que le véhicule qui le précède freine, ce qui augmenterait les risques d'accident. Mesures correctives : Le constructeur doit aviser les propriétaires par courrier d'apporter leur véhicule chez un concessionnaire pour faire remplacer l'interrupteur des feux de freinage.

• Coussin gonflable#201901310 janvier 2019

  102 110 unités visées

  Problème : Sur certains véhicules, une exposition à long terme à une température et à un degré d'humidité absolue élevés, combinée à un cycle de température élevé, pourrait dégrader le produit propulsif contenu dans le coussin gonflable avant du passager. Cela pourrait faire en sorte que le coussin gonflable se déploie avec plus de force qu'à la normale. Si le dispositif de gonflage de coussin gonflable se brisait, des fragments pourraient être projetés vers les occupants du véhicule ou endommager le coussin gonflable, ce qui empêcherait le coussin gonflable de fonctionner adéquatement. Risques : Si le véhicule a un accident nécessitant un déploiement de coussin gonflable, le dispositif de gonflage de coussin gonflable pourrait se briser et créer un risque de blessures. Mesures correctives : Les propriétaires seront avisés par courrier d'apporter leur véhicule à un concessionnaire pour faire remplacer le dispositif de gonflage de coussin gonflable avant du passager. Note : Le climat canadien dégrade lentement le produit propulsif. On effectue le présent rappel pour éliminer les risques à venir. On s'attend à ce que les dispositifs de gonflable de coussin gonflable soient remplacés avant que leur fonctionnement ne soit affecté.

• Circuit électrique#20164927 octobre 2016

  15 378 unités visées

  Dans certains véhicules à turbocompresseur, le relais qui contrôle la pompe d'injection d'air secondaire pourrait avoir été mal fabriqué. Par conséquent, le relais pourrait permettre à la pompe de fonctionner de façon continue. Si ce problème survient, la pompe pourrait surchauffer et fondre, ce qui produirait une odeur de brûlé ou de la fumée et pourrait déclencher un feu. Cela pourrait augmenter les risques de blessures ou de dommages matériels (ou les deux). Mesure corrective : Les concessionnaires devront installer un relais modifié.

• Freins#201458622 décembre 2014

  33 000 unités visées

  Sur certains véhicules, les conduites de frein arrière et du centre pourraient être perforées par la corrosion. Cela pourrait causer une fuite dans le système de freinage, ce qui pourrait augmenter les distances de freinage et ainsi augmenter les risques de blessures ou de dommages matériels (ou les deux). Correction : Les concessionnaires devront inspecter les véhicules et soit appliquer un produit anticorrosion sur la cosse de raccordement en croix et sur les conduites de frein, soit les remplacer, au besoin. Remarque : Le présent rappel remplace les rappels 2013092 et 2014223. Les véhicules qui ont été inspectés ou réparés (ou les deux) dans le cadre du rappel précédent devront être inspectés ou réparés (ou les deux) à nouveau.

• Freins#201422312 juin 2014

  105 649 unités visées

  Sur certains véhicules, les canalisations de freinage à l'arrière et au centre pourraient se perforer par corrosion. Cela causerait une fuite au niveau du système de freinage qui pourrait augmenter les distances de freinage, ce qui pourrait augmenter les risques d'un accident blessant quelqu'un ou endommageant des biens matériels. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront inspecter les véhicules et soit appliquer un revêtement anti­corrosion sur les canalisations soit remplacer les canalisations si nécessaire. Remarque: Le présent rappel remplace le rappel 2013092. Les véhicules qui ont été inspectés ou réparés dans le cadre du rappel précédent devront subir une nouvelle inspection ou de nouvelles réparations.
