Details

Certain vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 126 - Electronic Stability Control Systems.

Vehicles that were brought to a dealer for service may have received an incorrect software update for the Antilock Brake System Stability Control system.

The incorrect software disables the engine torque control of the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system, and if a fault were to occur in the stability control system, including Antilock Brake System (ABS), Traction Control (T/C), and ESC, no warning lamp/indicator would be displayed to the driver.

Additionally, no warning lamp/indicator would be displayed when traction control is disabled, or when the Electric Parking Brake (EPB) is applied.

A lack of visual warning to indicate these systems are not functioning would be contrary to the requirements of the standard, and could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property.

Correction: Dealers will reprogram the ABS module to correct the non-compliance.

Until this software is available, dealers will replace the ABS module.
