Transport Canada lists: Commander 2006–2010 · Grand 2005–2010

What is wrong

On certain vehicles equipped with a full-time four-wheel drive system, the transfer case controller could fail. This could cause the transfer case to shift into or through the neutral position, which may allow the vehicle to roll away, even with the transmission in the PARK position. Should the vehicle roll away, it could strike another vehicle, stationary object, or a bystander, causing property damage and/or personal injury.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will reprogram the final drive controller with updated software.

12 August 2010

Transport Canada lists: Commander 2007–2010

What is wrong

On certain vehicles that were not equipped with a factory sunroof, the supplemental side airbag inflatable curtain may not position properly during inflation. The side curtain airbag will still timely deploy and meet and exceed applicable safety standards.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will install a bracket and foam block behind the "B" pillar upper trim cover to improve side curtain airbag positioning in the event of a deployment. This action is a Customer Satisfaction Campaign and is not being conducted as per the requirements of the Motor Vehicle Safety Act.

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the driver airbag squib wires on the steering column control module (SCCM) may be reversed. As a result, the driver airbag may not deploy as intended which can increase the risk of driver injury or death during a vehicle crash.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the SCCM.
