Recall 2015014

The issue

Certain vehicles may not comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 208 - Occupant Protection. The passenger seat occupant classification system (OCS) may have been calibrated incorrectly during the manufacturing process. This could result in the non-deployment of an airbag, which would increase the risk of injury to the seat occupant in a crash where airbag deployment is warranted. Correction: Dealers will reprogram the occupant classification system (OCS).

Description (français)

Certains véhicules pourraient ne pas satisfaire aux exigences de la NSVAC 208 – Systèmes de retenue des occupants en cas de collision frontale. Le système de classification de l'occupant du siège pourrait avoir été mal étalonné au cours de la fabrication. Cela pourrait causer le non-déploiement d'un coussin gonflable, ce qui pourrait augmenter les risques de blessures pour l'occupant du siège en cas de collision lors de laquelle le déploiement des coussins gonflables est nécessaire. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront reprogrammer le système de classification de l'occupant.
