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

- [2016338](/recalls/tc/2016338.md), 2016-06-29: Airbag. On certain two\-door coupe vehicles, in the event of a collision that warrants a deployment of the front passenger airbag, the deploying airbag could strike the passenger sun visor if it is in the down position. This could cause the sun visor to detach from its mounting bracket, potentially contacting an occupant, which would increase the risk of injury.  Correction:  Dealers will add a tether strap to the passenger sun visor. Note: This is an expansion of recall 2015267.
- [2015267](/recalls/tc/2015267.md), 2015-06-16: Airbag. On certain 2 door coupe vehicles,  in the event of a collision that warrants a deployment of the front passenger airbag, the deploying airbag could strike the passenger sun visor if it is in the down position. This could cause the sun visor to detach from its mounting bracket, potentially contacting an occupant, which would increase the risk of injury.  Correction:  Dealers will add a tether strap to the passenger sun visor.
- [2001051](/recalls/tc/2001051.md), 2001-03-09: Powertrain. Certain vehicles were built with automatic transmission cooler hoses \(in and out\) that may not have met specific winner wall thickness requirements in the manufacturing process.  Over time, these hoses may deteriorate and leak automatic transmission fluid.  Should leaking transmission fluid contact a hot exhaust pipe, a fire could occur. Correction:  Dealers will replace the hose assembly for the automatic transmission oil cooler.
- [2001048](/recalls/tc/2001048.md), 2001-03-06: Engine. On certain vehicles, the harness for the crankshaft position sensor could come in contact with a new protective shield causing a grounded circuit. Prolonged wiring harness contact with the heat shield will cause the wiring insulation to wear and eventually to ground out. This could cause the engine to die out, increasing the risk of a crash.  Correction:   Crank position sensor wiring harness will be rerouted.
- [2000296](/recalls/tc/2000296.md), 2000-12-15: Fuel System. On certain vehicles, a fuel return hose may not contain the desired ozone protection which could result in the hose having a reduced life expectancy.  Over time, the hose may deteriorate and leak fuel.  Correction: Dealers will inspect the fuel return hose date code and replace the hose if required.
- [2000255](/recalls/tc/2000255.md), 2000-10-27: Seats And Restraints. Certain vehicles may have been built with a passenger side air bag module that may not retain the air bag door during a deployment.  Although airbag performance is not affected by this condition, a separated air bag door could injure a vehicle occupant.  Correction:  Passenger side airbag module will be replaced.
