Major automakers Ford (F), Honda (HMC), and General Motors (GM) have recalled a combined 80,000 vehicles across Canada.
Ford is recalling nearly 50,000 vehicles in Canada due to a faulty integrated park module that could increase the risk of a crash.

Honda is notifying Acura owners in Canada and advising them to take their vehicle to a dealership to replace the brake cylinder.
And General Motors is recalling nearly 21,000 vehicles in Canada for a software problem that could cause the pedestrian warning system to not work.
The impacted vehicles are the Chevrolet Equinox EV, model years 2025 and 2026.
