The issue

Certain vehicles equipped with HID headlamps may not comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 108 - Lighting System and Retroreflective Devices. A Daytime Running Lamp (DRL) that is optically combined with a turn signal lamp must switch off when the turn signal lamp is switched on as a hazard warning signal. In the affected vehicles, the DRL overrides the hazard flashing functionality after the service brake is applied for more than 2 seconds, which is contrary to the standard. The hazard functionality returns to normal when the application of the service brake is removed. Turn signal functionality would not impacted. Failure to warn oncoming vehicles with flashing hazard lamps could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will update vehicle software.

Description (français)

Certains véhicules munis de phares DHI pourraient ne pas satisfaire aux exigences de la norme de sécurité des véhicules automobiles du Canada (NSVAC) 108 – Système d'éclairage et dispositifs rétroréfléchissants. Un feu de jour combiné optiquement à un indicateur de changement de direction doit s'éteindre lorsque l'indicateur de changement de direction est allumé en tant que feu de détresse. Dans les véhicules touchés, le feu de jour a priorité sur la fonction de feux de détresse si on actionne le frein de service pendant plus de 2 secondes, ce qui va à l'encontre des exigences de la norme. La fonction de feux de détresse redevient normale lorsqu'on cesse d'actionner le frein de service. Cela n'a aucune incidence sur la fonction de clignotants. L'impossibilité d'utiliser les feux de détresse pour avertir les véhicules qui arrivent en sens inverse pourrait augmenter les risques d'accident pouvant entraîner des blessures ou des dommages matériels (ou les deux). Correction : Les concessionnaires devront mettre à jour le logiciel du véhicule.
