Transport Canada issues latest recalls
November 21, 2007
Ottawa, Ontario - Transport Canada has issued its latest recalls, which may affect some Volvo, Chrysler, General Motors and Nissan vehicles, and Britax child seats.
2008 Volvo XC70
Vehicles affected: 644
On certain vehicles, incorrect software was programmed into the Safety Restraint System (SRS) control module. As a result, the inflatable curtain and side impact airbag may not deploy as intended. The incorrect software may also cause the SRS warning lamp to illuminate and the message "SRS Airbag - Service Urgent" to be displayed. Dealers will update the SRS control module software.
2008 Dodge Caliber
2008 Jeep Compass
2008 Jeep Patriot
Vehicles affected: 4,200
On certain vehicles, the bilingual airbag visor warning labels may not have been installed during vehicle assembly. Owners will be provided with labels and installation instructions.
2001 Saturn L Series
Vehicles affected: 841
On certain vehicles equipped with a 2.2-litre engine, the timing chain may fail. If a timing chain link separates while the engine is running, the engine will stall and not restart. Dealers will replace the timing chain.
2001 Chevrolet Silverado
2001 GMC Sierra
Vehicles affected: 740
On certain vehicles equipped with an 8.1-litre engine, the crankshaft position sensor may fail. If the sensor operates intermittently, the Service Engine Soon (SES) light may illuminate and the vehicle may run rough. The engine may also stall and, if so, may restart immediately or after a cool-down period. If the sensor becomes permanently inoperable, the engine will quit running and will not restart. Dealers will replace the crankshaft position sensor.
2002-2006 Nissan Altima
2002-2006 Nissan Sentra
Vehicles affected: 40,666
On certain vehicles equipped with a 2.5-litre engine, the crank angle sensor can malfunction, causing the engine to stall. Dealers will reprogram the electronic control module to prevent stalling.
2007 Britax E9L16 Roundabout
Models affected: 349
Certain child restraints do not meet the label requirements of CMVSS 213. One label contains only French instructions and warnings, while another bilingual label contains partial information. Owners will be provided with updated labels and installation instructions.

not a problem, it was there in the info on their site so it was just a copy and paste, but there have been 2 other recalls out on 2 other car seats I know of this year, I think they are in thread in on other recalls I posted awhile ago. One was Eddie Bouier I think.

Curious, how many recalls did the Focus have after it's 4th year in production.oldeguy,Nov 21 2007, 03:41 PM Wrote:No Fords?
