Transport Canada recalls

Electrical#2016446September 13, 2016
5 units affected
On certain vehicles, the power converter that supplies power from the battery pack to the lights, instruments, anti-lock braking (ABS) system and other accessories may have insufficient output. If power draw exceeds supply, the unit may shut off, which could disable ABS system function. If this were to occur during a stop when the ABS is active, it could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the installed converter, and replace if fitted with the faulty converter.
