Issue

Issue:
On certain vehicles, if the front turn signal light fails, the driver would not be alerted by a fast-flashing turn signal indicator. Canadian regulations require this to happen so a driver knows when a turn signal light is not working.

Safety Risk:
A loss of turn signal function, without a warning to the driver, could increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions:
The company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a dealer to update the body control module software.
