04- Engine#2018217
1,627 units affected
On certain vehicles equipped with the Active Curve System (ACS), the oil in the ACS’s reservoir could start foaming under certain dynamic driving situations in combination with an oil level below minimum. The oil foam could leak out of the oil reservoir through the vent holes in the sealing cap and spray onto hot surface components of the exhaust system. This could increase the risk of fire causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the ACS reservoir for proper oil level and replace the sealing cap with an updated part.

4 units affected
On certain vehicles, an update provided between de 3rd and 5th of December 2016 to the vehicle control unit may have been incorrectly applied. This could affect the proper function of various safety systems such as airbag deployment sequence, seatbelts recognition status, speed limiter setting and others. These conditions could increase the risk of injury to the occupants in the event of a crash. Correction: Dealers will update the affected control units.
- Steering#2016619
6 units affected
On certain vehicles, the axle bolts on the front and/or rear axle may not have been correctly assembled. This could cause the bolts to fracture, which could affect vehicle handling and stability, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the axle bolts.

828 units affected
Certain vehicles may not comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 108 - Lighting System and Retroreflective Devices. The daytime running lights can be deactivated by the driver, contrary to the requirements of the standard. This could reduce vehicle conspicuity during daylight hours, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will update vehicle software.
