Transport Canada recalls
09- Engine#2016094
685 units affected
On certain vehicles outfitted with the optional accessory cold weather PCV heater kit, the pipe heater wiring may chafe on a metal clamp. This could result in the PCV pipe heater wiring to interact with the clamp, which could lead to an electrical short circuit, increasing the risk of a fire causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the PCV pipe heater with an improved component.
- Fuel System#2015597
1,240 units affected
On certain vehicles, the fuel return hose could deteriorate when subjected to various chemicals and lubricants, such as those used when cleaning the vehicle or used in certain rear body applications. If the fuel return hose were to deteriorate, it could swell and come off. This would result in a fuel leak, which in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire. Correction: Dealers will inspect the fuel return hose. If a defective hose is found installed, it will be replaced with an improved hose.
- Brakes#2015357
887 units affected
On certain vehicles, steel brake pad shims may corrode and swell upon exposure to road de-icing chemicals and/or road salt. This could result in extended brake pedal travel when applying the brakes, potentially affecting stopping distances and increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace steel brake pad shims with stainless steel ones.
- Engine#2015138
5 units affected
On certain vehicles, the lower engine timing chain bolt may have been insufficiently tightened during assembly and could loosen, resulting in an engine oil leak. Continued operation in this condition could cause engine damage resulting in a loss of motive power which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will tighten the lower timing chain bolt to the proper torque specification.
- Powertrain#2014438
1,180 units affected
On certain vehicles, the transmission oil cooler hose may have been manufactured incorrectly and may burst, causing an automatic transmission fluid (ATF) leak. As a result, the transmission could become inoperative, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the hose, and if necessary, replace it.
- Powertrain#2013301
80 units affected
On certain vehicles, the transmission oil cooler hoses may leak due to the use of hose clamps with insufficient tightening force. This could result in a loss of motive power, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will replace affected clamps.
- Brakes#2012374
782 units affected
On certain vehicles, the parking brake cable lock nut may have been improperly tightened during vehicle assembly and could loosen over time, allowing the parking brake lever stroke length to increase gradually. If left unchecked, the parking brake stroke could increase until the parking brake no longer fully applies. This could allow the vehicle to roll away causing a risk or property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect the lock nut and tighten if necessary.
- Fuel System#2012362
779 units affected
On certain vehicles, the fuel filter head may have been manufactured incorrectly. This could allow a fuel tube to disconnect from the filter head, which would cause a leak. Fuel leakage, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the fuel filter head.
- Fuel System#2012293
634 units affected
On certain trucks, the low pressure fuel return line (between the #4 fuel injector and the fuel supply pump) may have been installed incorrectly during vehicle assembly. This could allow the hose to disconnect from the inline check valve/filter (part of the return line assembly), which would cause a fuel leak. Diesel fuel leakage may ignite on a hot engine surface and cause a fire, which could result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will reroute the low pressure fuel return line.
