{"source":"tc","country":"ca","campaign":"2007295","date":"2007-09-10","owner_notified":null,"manufacturer":null,"component":"Lights And Instruments","summary":"On certain vehicles, excessive amounts of silicon grease was applied to the telescoping mechanism of the steering column during vehicle assembly.  As a result, oil can separate from the grease, which can form droplets that may fall onto the brake light switch.  This can cause the brake light to fail, it may not be possible to shift the transmission from the Park position and/or the stop lamps may fail to illuminate, leading to a failure to alert a following vehicle of the driver's intent to stop, potentially resulting in a crash.  Correction: Dealers will replace the brake light switch and connector housing, and install a cover to prevent oil from damaging the switch.","consequence":null,"remedy":null,"notes":null,"mfr_campaign":"VI-2-07","part_number":null,"units":3596,"completion":null,"do_not_drive":null,"park_outside":null,"notification":"Safety Mfr","french":{"component":"Feux et instruments","notification":"Sécurité - fabricant","summary":"Sur certains véhicules, des quantités excessives de graisse de silicone ont été appliquées sur le mécanisme téléscopique de la colonne de direction pendant le montage du véhicule. En conséquence, l'huile pourrait se séparer de la graisse, ce qui pourrait former des gouttelettes qui pourraient tomber sur l'interrupteur des feux de freinage. Cela pourrait faire en sorte que les feux de freinage fassent défaut, qu'il soit impossible de désengager la boîte de vitesses de la position PARK, ou que les feux de freinage ne s'allument pas, ce qui empêcherait d'avertir les autres véhicules que le conducteur du véhicule visé a l'intention de s'arrêter, ce qui pourrait causer un accident. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer le carter de raccord et l'interrupteur des feux de freinage, et poser un dispositif de recouvrement pour empêcher l'huile d'endommager l'interrupteur."},"vehicles":[{"year":2006,"make":"HONDA","model":"CIVIC","vehicle_id":"2006_honda_civic","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2007,"make":"HONDA","model":"CIVIC","vehicle_id":"2007_honda_civic","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null}],"may_apply":true,"as_of":"2026-10-19","lookup":{"nhtsa":"https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls","tc":"https://wwwapps.tc.gc.ca/Saf-Sec-Sur/7/VRDB-BDRV/search-recherche/menu.aspx?lang=eng","maker":null},"attribution":["Contains information licensed under the Open Government Licence – Canada."],"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/recalls/tc/2007295"}
