The issue
On certain vehicles, the Child Safety Lever, incorporated into the rear door latch assembly fitted to the left rear door, when engaged, may permit the door to be opened by the interior door handle (when the Child Safety Lever is still in the ON position). Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if needed, replace the latch assembly.
Description (français)
Sur certains véhicules, on peut ouvrir la portière arrière gauche avec la poignée intérieure même si le dispositif de sécurité pour les enfants incorporé au verrou de cette porte est enclenché (c.-à-d. que le levier est à la position ON). Correction : Les concessionnaires devront inspecter le verrou et le remplacer s'il y a lieu.
