Airbag

Transport Canada recall 2018009 · manufacturer campaign J072

8 January 2018

Transport Canada lists: XF 2010–2015

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, long-term exposure to high absolute humidity and temperature, combined with high temperature cycling, could eventually degrade the propellant contained in the passenger frontal airbag. This could cause the airbag to deploy with more force than normal. As a result, if the vehicle were involved in a collision that warrants airbag deployment, fragments could be propelled toward vehicle occupants, and the airbag assembly could be damaged, preventing proper function. These issues could increase the risk of injury.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will replace the passenger frontal airbag module. Note: Canadian climate results in the propellant degrading slowly. The recall is being conducted as a precaution to address future risk, and is expected to replace the passenger frontal airbag module before their function would be affected.

Label

Transport Canada recall 2011442 · manufacturer campaign J025

28 December 2011

Transport Canada lists: XF 2012

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the compliance label does not contain the correct Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) and Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). The label incorrectly indicates a GVWR of 5,225 instead of 2,370, and a GAWR of 2,612 (front) & 2,756 (rear) instead of 1,185 (front) & 1,250 (rear). As such, the vehicle could be unwittingly overloaded, which would result in poor vehicles handling characteristics, increasing the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury.

What the dealer will do

Updated labels will be mailed to owners of affected vehicles, along with instructions for proper installation.
