Details

Certain vehicles, from Ontario to Newfoundland, could experience a corrosion related failure of the spare tire winch cable.

If the cable breaks while the vehicle is being driven, the spare tire could drop down, potentially creating a roadway obstacle.

Correction: Owners are to inspect the cable, and if corrosion or broken wire strands are present the vehicle is to be taken to a dealer for replacement of the winch assembly.

Program ends September 30, 2003.
