## Canada (Transport Canada), as of 2026-10-19

- [1988044](/recalls/tc/1988044.md), 1988-03-24: Powertrain. ON VEHICLES WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS, THE SHIFT LEVER BUTTON \(DETENT\) MECHANISM CAN, OVER TIME, WEAR TO THE POINT THAT THE BUTTON ON THE SHIFT LEVER NO LONGER NEEDS TO BE DEPRESSED TO SHIFT FROM "DRIVE" TO "REVERSE". A LEVER WITH THIS CONDITION COULD BE INADVERTENTLY BUMPED OR MOVED FROM "DRIVE" TO "REVERSE" BY THE DRIVER OR THE PASSENGER WHILE THE VEHICLE IS BEING DRIVEN. THIS COULD CAUSE LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL AND A CRASH WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING. CORRECTION: AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SHIFT LEVER WILL BE REPLACED WITH A NEWLY DESIGNED LEVER.
- [1984027](/recalls/tc/1984027.md), 1984-02-27: Seats And Restraints. On certain vehicles, the front seat back locks may not lock under forward load conditions and are therefore not in compliance with CMVSS 207 \- Seat Anchorages.
