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

- [2013231](/recalls/tc/2013231.md), 2013-07-04: Airbag. On certain vehicles, the airbag warning lamp may illuminate due to an electrical fault within the Occupant Restraint Control \(ORC\) module.  As a result, the Active Head Restraints \(AHR\) may not deploy during a rear impact collision \(where deployment is warranted\), which could increase the risk of personal injury to the front seat occupants.  Correction: Dealers will reprogram the Totally Integrated Power Module \(TIPM\) or replace the ORC module, as required.
