Details

Certain vehicles fail to conform to Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 102 – Transmission Control Functions, and CMVSS 114 – Theft Protection and Rollaway Prevention.

A fractured park lock cable, or a defective steering lock module, may have been installed during vehicle assembly.

This could allow the driver to shift out of PARK with the key in the OFF position or removed from the ignition.

As well, the transmission may be shifted out of PARK without first depressing the brake pedal.

The key may also be rotated to the OFF position and removed while the shifter is not in PARK.

These issues could result in unintended vehicle movement, which could cause a crash resulting in property damage and/or personal injury.

Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the steering column assembly.
