Government release:
Transport Canada has issued two separate vehicle recall notices.
Tesla Recall (ID: 2023595): Tesla has issued a recall for certain Model S and Model X vehicles from 2021, 2022, and 2023 due to airbag issues. The recall affects the following models:
- 2021 Tesla Model S
- 2021 Tesla Model X
- 2022 Tesla Model S
- 2022 Tesla Model X
- 2023 Tesla Model S
- 2023 Tesla Model X
After replacements from yoke to round steering wheels (or vice versa), the wrong airbag may have been installed, increasing the risk of injury in a crash. Tesla will contact owners for an inspection and possible airbag replacement.
Honda Recall (ID: 2023593): The 2023 Honda Pilot has been recalled due to a steering issue. The steering gearbox might have been incorrectly manufactured, potentially causing the steering rack to lock up while driving, increasing crash risks. Honda will reach out to owners for a gearbox replacement.
Both recalls highlight safety risks and corrective actions, with Tesla’s issue related to airbags and Honda’s to steering. Owners are advised to refer to the Transport Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Recalls Database for further details.
