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

- [2008077](/recalls/tc/2008077.md), 2008-03-04: Lights And Instruments. On certain vehicles, the Daytime Running Lamp \(DRL\) resistor may crack.  If water and road salt enters the crack, it could corrode the resistor.  This could result in a loss of DRL illumination, and therefore, vehicles may be less visible to other motorists and pedestrians during daylight hours, possibly resulting in a crash causing personal injury or death.  Correction: Dealers will replace the resistor until 7 years or 112,000 km from date vehicle was originally placed into service.
