  On certain vehicles equipped with an automatic fire suppression system (afss), the cylinder pressure release valve may not withstand engine compartment temperatures, which could result in a loss of the extinguishing agent. As a result, the fire suppression system would no longer be operational in the event of a fire, which could increase the risk of injury.

• Recall 2015240 [Canada]: Accessories
  On certain buses outfitted with automatic fire suppression system (afss) linear thermal detectors (ltd), the routing of the wiring for these systems could be compromised by normal engine compartment temperatures. If this were to occur, it could result in the afss system activating and giving a false warning to the driver, potentially resulting in a stopped vehicle, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash. Correction: dealers will inspect, and reroute the wiring.

• Recall 2013059 [Canada]: Other
  On certain vehicles, the engine calibration for the “limp home” mode was inadvertently set too high at 1750 rpm instead of 1200 rpm. Should the “limp home” mode be activated, the increased idle speed may cause sudden and unexpected acceleration, which could result in very high vehicle speeds and make it difficult to slow or stop the vehicle if the transmission is not shifted into neutral. This could result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: dealers will install updated engine calibration software.

• Recall 2012191 [Canada]: Other
  On certain vehicles, the accelerator pedal throttle position sensor could fail. A faulty throttle position sensor will send a permanent idle signal to the engine control unit (ecu). As such, depressing the accelerator pedal will provide no throttle response whatsoever. Loss of vehicle propulsion, in conjunction with traffic and road conditions, and the driver’s reactions, could increase the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: dealers will replace the accelerator pedal throttle position sensor.
