Transport Canada recalls
02- Seats And Restraints#2018711
7 units affected
On certain vehicles, the front seat belt buckles may be missing a rivet that secures the buckle to the cable mounting strap. In a crash, this could cause the seat belt buckle to separate from its mounting point, increasing the risk of injury to the occupant(s). Correction: Dealers will inspect the front driver and passenger seat belt buckle assemblies and will replace them if the rivet is not present.
- Brakes#2018461
19,385 units affected
On certain vehicles, a problem with the rear brake system may cause gas bubbles to form in the brake fluid. This could cause a soft brake pedal feel and a reduction in brake performance, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will bleed the rear brakes.
