Reported risk: Certain vehicles equipped with an automatic transmission and an ignition key may fail to conform to Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 114 - Theft Protection and Rollaway Prevention. During assembly, in order to prevent automatic transmission damage during rail transport, the key interlock is disabled by leaving the delivery mode connectors unconnected. The connectors on some vehicles may not have been connected during pre-delivery service at dealers or distributors. If not connected, it could allow for the ignition key to be removed in a gear other than PARK gear position, which is contrary to the requirements of the standard, and could cause unintended vehicle movement, increasing the risk of injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will inspect the delivery mode connectors and, if necessary, connect them.
