Transport Canada recalls

Fuel System#2020053February 12, 2020
2,139 units affected
Issue: On certain cars, the fuel tank could be damaged in a front crash. As a result, the fuel tank could leak. Safety Risk: A fuel leak can create the risk of a fire. Corrective Actions: The company will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your car to a dealer to install a protective cap on the fuel tank heat shield bracket.
Airbag#2019002January 3, 2019
9,527 units affected
Issue: On certain vehicles, long-term exposure to high absolute humidity and temperature, combined with high temperature cycling, may eventually degrade the propellant contained in the driver-front airbag. This could cause the airbag to deploy with more force than normal. If the airbag inflator ruptures, fragments could be propelled toward vehicle occupants or cause damage to the airbag assembly, preventing its proper function. Safety Risk: If the vehicle is involved in a crash requiring an airbag deployment, the airbag inflator could rupture and create a risk of injury. Corrective Actions: Owners will be notified by mail and instructed to take their vehicle to a dealer to have the driver-front airbag inflator replaced. Note: The Canadian climate results in the propellant degrading slowly. This recall is being conducted as a precaution to address future risk. It is expected that all airbag inflators will be replaced before their function would be affected.
