Issue

Certain vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 126 - Electronic Stability Control Systems. The memory chip in the electronic brake control module (EBCM) may fail and cause the loss of electronically controlled brake systems, including anti-lock brakes (ABS) and electronic stability control (ESC). As a result, the vehicle could be more difficult to control in situations where these brake systems would normally be engaged, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will install a replacement EBCM. Note: This condition does not affect the primary braking system; the service brakes will operate normally.
