- [2019420](/recalls/tc/2019420.md), 2019-08-21: Other. Issue: This recall is for aftermarket replacement rear window glass produced by Vitro Automotriz. Certain rear window glass may not have been properly tempered. If the window breaks, the glass may separate into large pieces instead of very small ones. Note: This is a voluntary recall that is not being conducted under the requirements of the Motor Vehicle Safety Act.  Safety Risk: Glass that breaks in to large pieces could create a risk of injury.  Corrective Actions: The company will notify consumers by mail and instruct them to inspect the designation code marked on the rear window glass. Products affected by this recall have the designation “DOT 287” along with the lettering “VMR” \(Replacement Market\) and a date code that is before July 2019. This information is printed on the bottom corner of the glass. Consumers should contact Vitro's customer service at 1\-412\-995\-6457 or argbacklites@vitro.com to arrange for replacement of the glass.
- [2014103](/recalls/tc/2014103.md), 2014-03-31: Airbag. Certain vehicles may not comply with Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 208 \- Occupant Protection in Frontal Impacts. Prescribed text may have been omitted from the airbag warning label in the French language only. As a result, the French\-language warning label is more restrictive than the English.   Correction:  No corrective recall action is required as this technical non\-compliance is deemed to be non\-safety related.
- [2011426](/recalls/tc/2011426.md), 2011-12-07: Powertrain. Certain vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 102 \- Transmission Control Functions.  The Brake Transmission Shift Interlock \(BTSI\) switch may have been incorrectly manufactured and could fail.  This would allow the transmission gear shift lever to be moved out of the PARK position without depressing the brake pedal.  Depending which gear the driver selects, the vehicle could begin to move forward or backward immediately.  This movement could result in property damage, or cause the vehicle to strike a bystander, potentially resulting in personal injury.  Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the BTSI switch.
