   On certain vehicles, if a driver exits the vehicle and were to inadvertently leave the vehicle "ON", after a period of time the vehicle's battery would drain and the vehicle's gasoline engine would begin to run. If the gasoline engine were to run for long periods of time when the vehicle is parked in an enclosed area, such as a garage, there is a risk of carbon monoxide build-up, which could result in asphyxiation or carbon monoxide poisoning. Correction: Dealers will update vehicle software to limit the time that an idle vehicle can be left in the "ON" position.

   On certain vehicles, material used in the construction of the windshield sunshade, sold as an optional accessory, may not meet the requirements of the Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (CMVSS) 302 - Flammability of Interior Materials. The sunshade's inner core material could burn faster than allowable by the standard. Note: The exterior material, exposed in normal use, meets the requirements of the standard. Correction: A production change was made to add a flame resistant coating to the interior corrugated plastic layer to remedy this non-compliance condition. No corrective recall action is required as the technical non-compliance condition is deemed to be non-safety related.

   Certain vehicles fail to conform to Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 108 - Lighting System and Retroreflective Devices, as well as CMVSS 114 - Theft Protection and Rollaway Prevention. These vehicles were inadvertently programmed with incorrect Daytime Running Lamp (DRL) and theft protection calibration files during vehicle assembly. This could allow the driver to switch off the DRL system while the vehicle is underway. It could also allow non-dealership personnel to reprogram a replacement ignition key. A loss of DRL illumination could render the vehicle less visible to other motorists and to pedestrians during daylight hours, possibly resulting in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will reprogram the Body Control Module.
