THE GROOVE FOR THE REAR WHEEL BEARING RETAINER RING WAS INCORRECTLY MACHINED. Remedy: MIDAS SHOPS WILL REPLACE THE BRAKE DRUMS WITH OTHER BRAKE DRUMS FROM ANOTHER SUPPLIER.
RESIN MOLDED FRONT HANDLES FAIL AT THE DOOR LATCH ACTUATING ROD ATTACHMENT, FREEING THE ROD TO FALL INSIDE THE DOOR FRAME. SUBSEQUENT LOWERING OF THE ASSOCIATED WINDOW MAY FORCE THE ACTUATING ROD DOWNWARD AND RELEASE THE DOOR LATCH. Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE DOOR HANDLE/LATCH ASSEMBLY.
We checked Transport Canada's recall database for this make, model and year.

NOTE: 626 - 16,682 UNITS. 929 - 3,001 UNITS. THE FRONT OUTER DOOR HANDLES CAN PREMATURELY FAIL AT THE POINT WHERE THE HANDLE CONNECTS TO THE ROD THAT ACTIVATES THE DOOR LOCK. IF THE ROD WERE TO FALL INBOARD INTO THE PATH OF THE WINDOW GLAZING, LOWERING THE WINDOW COULD RESULT IN PRESSURE ON THE ROD AND COULD CAUSE THE DOOR TO INADVERTENTLY OPEN IF UNLOCKED. CORRECTION: A SAFETY SHIELD WILL BE INSTALLED BETWEEN THE OUTER SURFACE OF THE WINDOW GLAZING AND THE DOOR HANDLE OPERATING MECHANISM.
