  • Other#2019420

    5,327 units affected

    Issue: This recall is for aftermarket replacement rear window glass produced by Vitro Automotriz. Certain rear window glass may not have been properly tempered. If the window breaks, the glass may separate into large pieces instead of very small ones. Note: This is a voluntary recall that is not being conducted under the requirements of the Motor Vehicle Safety Act. Safety Risk: Glass that breaks in to large pieces could create a risk of injury. Corrective Actions: The company will notify consumers by mail and instruct them to inspect the designation code marked on the rear window glass. Products affected by this recall have the designation “DOT 287” along with the lettering “VMR” (Replacement Market) and a date code that is before July 2019. This information is printed on the bottom corner of the glass. Consumers should contact Vitro's customer service at 1-412-995-6457 or argbacklites@vitro.com to arrange for replacement of the glass.

  • Seats And Restraints#2015377

    417 units affected

    Certain vehicles equipped with a 70/30 fixed passenger bench seat may fail to conform to Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 210 – Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages. The floor attachment locations for the 70% front passenger and center seat belt anchorages are outside of the parameters specified by the Standard. An improperly positioned seat belt anchorage may reduce the seat belt’s ability to properly restrain the occupant during a crash, increasing the risk of personal injury. Correction: Dealers will install safety restraint anchorage point relocation bracket kits.

  • Lights And Instruments#2012324

    474 units affected

    Certain vehicles fail to conform to Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 105 - Hydraulic and Electric Brake Systems. On subject vehicles, the parking brake telltale lamp does not illuminate when the key is in the "on" or "start" positions. Correction: Due to the inconsequential nature of this non-compliance, no action will be taken.

  • Brakes#2012085

    3 units affected

    On certain trucks equipped with Bendix ATR-6 Antilock Traction Relay valves, in extremely cold conditions (at or below -18 degrees Celsius), internal ATR valve leakage can occur. This could cause unintended brake application, which could overheat the affected brakes and cause a fire. Also, in certain low traction conditions, unexpected brake application can cause a loss of vehicle control and a crash. These issues could result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will update the cover assembly on the ATR valves.

  • Steering#2012002

    2 units affected

    On certain trucks, the fastener which secures the steering drag link arm to the knuckle may not have received adequate tightening torque during vehicle assembly. This could allow the drag link arm to disconnect, which could result in a loss of steering capability. A loss of steering control could result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will tighten the drag link arm fastener to specifications.

  • Brakes#2011175

    2 units affected

    Certain vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 121 - Air Brake Systems. The Antilock Brake System (ABS) module may have been incorrect programmed during vehicle assembly. As such, the trailer ABS fault indicator lamp may not illuminate if a trailer ABS fault occurs. A driver who is unaware that the trailer ABS is not functioning could lose control of the trailer under hard braking, which could result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the ABS module.
