DUE TO IMPROPER OPERATION OF THE SECONDARY HOOD LATCH BY OWNERS USING EXCESSIVE FORCE ON THE LEVER, THE HOOD LATCH ASSEMBLY MAY BECOME DAMAGED, RESULTING IN SEPARATION OF THE SECONDARY LATCH FROM THE LATCH ASSEMBLY. Remedy: THE DEALER WILL REPLACE THE HOOD LATCH ASSEMBLY WITH ONE THAT WILL REDUCE THE LIKELIHOOD OF ABUSE OR IMPROPER OPERATION, FREE OF CHARGE.
IMPURE LUBRICATING GREASE USED IN THE HEADLIGHT SWITCHES COULD CONTAMINATE ONE OR MORE CONTACT POINTS. OPERATION OF THE HEADLIGHTS COULD BE DELAYED OR NOT LIGHT WHEN THE SWITCH IS TURNED ON OR WHEN THE DIMMER SWITCH IS OPERATED. CONSEQUENCE OF DEFECT: LOSS OF HEAD LIGHTS WHILE DRIVING COULD RESULT IN A VEHICLE ACCIDENT. Remedy: REPLACE HEADLIGHT SWITCH AS NECESSARY.
We checked Transport Canada's recall database for this make, model and year.

THE GREASE USED TO LUBRICATE THE HEADLAMP SWITCH WAS FORMULATED INCORRECTLY TO CONTAIN SILICONE. ELECTRICAL ARCING DURING SWITCH OPERATION COULD PRODUCE SILICONE OXIDE DEPOSITS WHICH COULD PREVENT THE SWITCH CONTACT POINTS FROM COMPLETELY CLOSING. THIS COULD RESULT IN EITHER DELAYED OR NON-ILLUMINATION OF ONE OF THE HEAD- LIGHTS WHEN THE SWITCH IS TURNED ON OR DURING DIMMER SWITCH OPERATION.
IF THE SECONDARY HOOD LATCH LEVER IS MISTAKENLY OPERATED IN THE INCORRECT DIRECTION, THERE IS A POSSIBILITY OF DAMAGE TO THE HOOD LATCH ASSEMBLY EVENTUALLY RESULTING IN SEPARATION OF THE SECONDARY HOOD LATCH. UNDER THIS CONDITION, IF THE PRIMARY LATCH IS NOT FULLY ENGAGED, OR IS RELEASED WHILE DRIVING, THE HOOD MAY OPEN, OBSTRUCTING FRONTAL VISION AND A VEHICLE CRASH COULD OCCUR.
