The issue
On certain vehicles, the gearshift cable may become disengaged from the steering column mounting bracket and cause an incorrect transmission gearshift position display. This could allow the vehicle to move inadvertently, resulting in a crash causing property damages and personal injuries. Correction: Dealers will install a redundant locking mechanism to ensure proper retention and shift linkage function.
Description (français)
Sur certains véhicules, le câble de changement de vitesse pourrait se détacher du support de fixation de la colonne de direction et afficher la mauvaise vitesse. Cela pourrait permettre au véhicule de se mettre en mouvement, de causer un accident et d'endommager des biens matériels et blesser quelqu'un. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront poser un mécanisme de verrouillage redondant pour assurer une retenue et un fonctionnement de tringlerie de changement de vitesse adéquats.
