Recall Details

Certain vehicles fail to conform to Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 108 – Lighting System and Retroreflective Devices. When a turn signal lamp fails to operate, the Body Control Module (BCM) in these vehicles does not detect this condition and will not alert the driver. As a result, the driver’s intentions to turn may not be conveyed clearly to other road users, increasing the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will reprogram the BCM and the vehicle’s key fobs.
