Lotus Recall Overview
Safety Recalls & Notices
Summary
Issue: On certain vehicles, the tire and loading information label doesn't list that there is no spare tire. The label should reference "NONE / AUCUN". Canadian regulations require this information to be listed on the label. Safety Risk: This error does not affect vehicle safety. Corrective Actions: This is not a recall. Lotus has corrected the tire and loading information label for all new vehicles.
Summary
On certain vehicles, the steering column may have been assembled incorrectly and may not perform correctly in the event of a crash, which could increase the risk of injury to the occupant. Correction: Dealers will inspect and ensure the steering column cartridge screw is properly tightened.
Summary
On certain vehicles, the engine oil cooler lines could fail, causing an oil leak. Oil may contact a hot engine or exhaust component, which could result in a fire. Oil may also be sprayed onto the tires and/or brakes, which could adversely affect vehicles stability. As well, engine oil spilt on the roadway could endanger other road users by making the roadway unexpectedly slippery. These issues could result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will repair or replace the engine oil cooler lines. Note: This is an expansion of recalls 2011-390 and 2013-039 for vehicles not included in previous campaigns.

As well, engine oil spilt on the roadway could endanger other road users by making the roadway unexpectedly slippery. These issues could result in property damage and/or personal injury.

Summary
Certain vehicles may have been inadvertently equipped with incorrect turn signal modules during vehicle assembly. This could cause the LED turn signal lamps to flash at an erratic frequency when the hazard warning switch is depressed. In addition, in the event that either a front or rear turn signal lamp fails to illuminate or does not flash at the correct frequency when operated, the remaining functioning signal lamps on that vehicle's side, as well as the instrument turn telltale, will not flash at an increased rate as intended. As a result, the driver will not be visually alerted to the fact that a turn signal lamp is not operating correctly. As such, the driver's intentions to turn may not be conveyed clearly to other road users, increasing the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the turn signal modules.

Summary
On certain vehicles, the bolts securing the rear hubs to the suspension may not have been adequately tightened during vehicle assembly. An insecure wheel hub may cause a loss of vehicle control, which could result in a crash causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will verify the tightening torque of the rear hub bolt.
Summary
Certain vehicles do not comply with the requirements of CMVSS 208. The airbag warning label is missing from the sun visors. Correction: Owners will be provided with labels and installation instructions.
