{"source":"tc","country":"ca","campaign":"2015390","date":"2015-09-03","owner_notified":null,"manufacturer":null,"component":"Electrical","summary":"On certain 4-door sedans, the coil antenna module located in the driver side rear pillar, which powers the rear defogger system, could generate significant temperatures if the module is subjected to excessive cycling or continuous operation. This could result in a fire developing inside the rear pillar on the driver’s side of the vehicle, which could cause injury and/or damage to property.  Correction: Dealers will update the Electronic Climate Control (ECC) module software to remove the automatic rear defogger “on” function that occurs as a result of manual or remote start of the vehicle. 2013 models also have a “continuous on” feature (enabled at highway speeds in low temperatures) that will also be disabled.  Note: The base functionality of the rear defogger will not be lost.","consequence":null,"remedy":null,"notes":null,"mfr_campaign":"15299","part_number":null,"units":10381,"completion":null,"do_not_drive":null,"park_outside":null,"notification":"Safety Mfr","french":{"component":"Circuit électrique","notification":"Sécurité - fabricant","summary":"Sur certaines berlines à quatre portes, le module d'antenne bobinée situé dans le montant arrière du côté du conducteur, qui alimente le système de désembuage arrière, pourrait produire des températures élevées s'il subit un fonctionnement intermittent excessif ou s'il fonctionne sans interruption. Cela pourrait déclencher un feu dans le montant arrière du côté du conducteur, ce qui pourrait entraîner des blessures ou des dommages matériels (ou les deux). Correction : Les concessionnaires devront mettre à jour le logiciel du module électronique de commande de la température, afin de désactiver le fonctionnement automatique du système de désembuage arrière qui est activé lors du démarrage manuel ou à distance du véhicule. Les modèles 2013 comprennent également une option de fonctionnement sans interruption (activée à des vitesses élevées par temps froid) qui sera également désactivée. Remarque : La capacité de fonctionnement de base du système de désembuage arrière ne sera pas perdue."},"vehicles":[{"year":2013,"make":"CADILLAC","model":"ATS","vehicle_id":"2013_cadillac_ats","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2014,"make":"CADILLAC","model":"ATS","vehicle_id":"2014_cadillac_ats","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2015,"make":"CADILLAC","model":"ATS","vehicle_id":"2015_cadillac_ats","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2016,"make":"CADILLAC","model":"ATS","vehicle_id":"2016_cadillac_ats","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/2015390"}
