Transport Canada recalls

  • Engine#2025578

    27,010 units affected

    Issue: On certain vehicles, the wiring for the 400 W radiator cooling fan module may not have proper circuit protection. Additionally, the bearing for the fan could fail. If this happens, the wiring could overheat and melt before the fuse blows. Safety Risk: Wiring that overheats and melts could create the risk of a fire. Corrective Actions: FCA Canada will notify owners in writing and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the cooling fan module and fuse. The dealer will also install a label on the power distribution center and add an insert to the owner's manual.

  • Visual System#2025442

    9,533 units affected

    Issue: On certain vehicles, a problem with the rearview camera could cause the rearview camera image not to display correctly or at all. Safety Risk: A rearview camera image that doesn't display correctly could reduce a driver's ability to see behind the vehicle while backing up. This could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: FCA Canada will notify owners in writing and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the rearview camera.

  • Label#2024548

    314,717 units affected

    Issue: On certain vehicles, the tire and loading information label does not list that there is no spare tire in both official languages. The label reads as "NONE" when it should read as "NONE / AUCUN". Canadian regulations require the information to be listed on the label in both English and French. Safety Risk: This error does not affect vehicle safety. Corrective Actions: This is not a recall. The company has corrected the tire and loading information label for all new vehicles.

  • Structure#2024327

    24 units affected

    Issue: On certain vehicles, the passenger-side sliding door may be missing a support beam. In a crash, this could reduce the door's strength. Additionally, the tire and loading information label may not list the correct seating capacity. Safety Risk: A door structure that isn't strong enough could increase the risk of injuries in a crash. Corrective Actions: FCA Canada will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to install the missing door beam and replace the tire and loading information label.

  • Lights And Instruments#2024169

    389 units affected

    Issue: On certain vehicles, a wiring problem could cause the left-rear tail lamp and/or turn signal not to work. Safety Risk: A tail lamp that doesn't work could make the vehicle less visible to others. A turn signal that doesn't work could cause a person not to recognize when a driver intends to turn or change lanes. Both issues could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: FCA Canada will notify owners by mail. The corrective actions for this recall are under development.

  • Powertrain#2023253

    10,247 units affected

    Issue: On certain vehicles, the transmission parking pawl may not fully engage when you shift to park. If this happens, and the parking brake isn't used, the vehicle could roll away. Safety Risk: A parked vehicle that moves suddenly could create the risk of an injury or a crash. Corrective Actions: FCA Canada will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the powertrain control module (PCM) calibration software. The dealer will also inspect and, if necessary, replace the transmission or parts inside the transmission. To reduce the safety risk, FCA Canada recommends that you should always use the parking brake when you park.

  • Lights And Instruments#2021577

    1,076 units affected

    Issue: On certain vehicles, the turn signal indicator does not flash quickly to indicate when a turn signal bulb is not working. Canadian regulations require a change in the flash rate of the turn signal indicator when a turn signal bulb stops working. Safety Risk: This problem could cause a driver to be unaware that the turn signals are not working. Turn signals that do not work may cause a person not to recognize when a driver intends to turn or change lanes. This could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Action: FCA Canada will notify owners by mail and instruct you to bring your vehicle to a dealer to update the body control module (BCM) software.

  • Seats And Restraints#2021553

    655 units affected

    Issue: On certain vehicles, the passenger seat belt assemblies may contain defective automatic locking retractors (ALR). As a result, the seat belts may not properly lock to secure a child seat. Safety Risk: A seat belt that is used to secure a child restraint but is not properly locked could increase the risk of injury in a crash. Corrective Actions: FCA Canada will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to inspect the seat belts. They will be replaced, if necessary.
