Transport Canada Issues Latest Recalls - Frost__2001 - 10-16-2009 Transport Canada issues latest recalls October 15, 2009 Ottawa, Ontario ââ¬â Transport Canada has issued its latest recalls, which may affect some Toyota and Audi vehicles, and some Pirelli tires. 2007-2009 Pirelli PZero Corsa P285/35Z19 Units affected: 150 Certain tires may experience partial tread separation and/or belt edge separation, which could result in a loss of vehicle control. Dealers will replace the affected tires. 2010 Toyota Sequoia Vehicles affected: 92 On certain vehicles, the airbag warning labels affixed to the sun visors are in English only, which fail to comply with the requirements of CMVSS 208. Dealers will inspect the labels and, if necessary, install visors with bilingual warning labels. 2006-2010 Audi A3 Quattro 2008-2010 Audi TT Quattro 2008-2010 Audi TT Quattro Roadster Vehicles affected: 2,660 On certain vehicles, the closing force of an internal spring in the fuel tank ventilation valve is not adequate to hold the valve closed under extreme conditions. During certain driving manoeuvres, liquid fuel may enter the fuel tank venting system and migrate into the evaporative system, saturating the carbon canister. This may cause performance issues such as the vehicle jerking, and the malfunction indicator lamp could illuminate. In certain instances, fuel could also leak from the evaporation system leak detection pump filter which, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a vehicle fire. Dealers will replace the valve with an improved version. |
