A slew of vehicles have been recalled in Canada this week for issues ranging from oil leaks to wheels losing power.
Here's the list of vehicles that were flagged by Transport Canada this week.
BMW
Several BMWs have been recalled for manufacturing issues.
The 2025 X3 as well as the 3, 4 and 5 series cars have been pulled because of problems with the power connector for the starter-generator, Transport Canada said, adding that the vehicles could lose power to their wheels or overheat and cause fires.

Volkswagen
Over 15,000 Audis have been recalled across Canada due to fire risks.
On some 2022, 2023 and 2024 Audi Q5s, the screws on the cylinder head cover could come loose cause and oil leak, the recall note said.
Audi will notify the SUV owners by mail and advise them to visit a dealership, the government agency said.
Ford
A number of Ford vehicles are being recalled for a variety of different reasons.
Brake fluid leaks are impacting some 2022, 2023 and 2024 Lincoln Navigators and Ford Expeditions, according to Transport Canada.
The 2025 Ford F-150 was recalled as well because of a bolt problem that could cause drivers to lose control of the steering wheel, the notice said.

Fiat Chrysler
Nearly 18,000 Fiat Chrysler trucks were recalled on Friday for issues with the vehicles' rearview cameras.

Canadian Motor Import
A couple thousand UTVs are being recalled for issues with the vehicles' doors.
The government agency is warning that some doors on the 2025 CFMOTO UFORCE U10 PRO could fly open while driving and possibly cause a crash.

Ford Canada issues recall on certain electric F-150 trucks

Ford Canada has issued a national recall notice on certain F-150 Lightning electric trucks over steering wheel control concerns. According to the notice published by Transport Canada and last updated Thursday, 'the nuts for the ball joints that connect the front upper control arms to the steering knuckles may not have been properly tightened. As a result, the upper control arms could separate from the knuckles. If this happens, there could be a loss of steering control,' the recall reads. Affected models include 2023, 2024 and 2025 F-150 trucks, for a total of 11,409 vehicles, nationwide. A loss of steering control could create a risk of a crash, the recall notes. Ford will notify and advise owners via mail to bring their vehicle to a dealership to inspect for loose and/or missing nuts. If any are found, the dealer will replace the steering knuckle(s) and nut(s), according to the notice. Transport Canada says the Thursday notice replaces recall #2024-778, noting that vehicles that were repaired under that recall don't require this repair. Owners of this model can also call Ford at 1-800-565-3673 or visit their recall support website for more information. READ MORE: Have a Ford SUV or truck? These two recalls could affect you

Should You Buy Ford While It's Below $11?

It might come as a surprise to investors, but Ford (NYSE: F) is outperforming the broader market this year. As of May 28, the stock is up nearly 3% in 2025. This small win doesn't take away from the fact that the company has a poor track record over an extended period of time. Nonetheless, it's best to view the situation with a fresh perspective. Ford shares currently trade below $11. Does this setup mean that you should be a buyer right now? Let's look at the most important factors about the business and the stock that long-term investors should be paying attention to. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Continue » Economic moat In my view, one of the first things investors should try to identify when looking at a potential stock to buy is the presence of an economic moat. Capitalism creates fierce competition. And the companies that have built up durable competitive strengths are able to outperform rivals in the long run. Even the legendary investor Warren Buffett would likely agree. Turning the attention back to Ford, it's an easy argument to make by saying the company does not have an economic moat. A quantitative representation can be had by looking at the return on invested capital (ROIC) of 8.6%. It's best to own businesses that generate a figure well over 20%, as this indicates a huge spread between ROIC and the weighted average cost of capital. Producing a much higher ROIC showcases the ability to create real economic value, as opposed to destroying it. Understanding the industry backdrop will also give investors pause. The market is incredibly competitive, with domestic and foreign auto makers vying for consumer wallet share. The rise of electric vehicle (EV) enterprises only complicates the landscape. Some consumers might have an affinity to a brand, but other factors like price, features, and reliability can matter more in certain circumstances. It's hard to gain any sustainable advantage over rivals. Show me the growth Ford has been around for over a century, a nod to its staying power. However, this also reveals just how mature the auto industry is. Yes, there has been some innovation in recent decades with the introduction of hybrid cars and EVs. But the overall industry's growth isn't anything to write home about. In 2024, Ford brought in $185 billion in total revenue. This is just 28% higher than exactly one decade earlier in 2014. There were 17.8 million cars sold in the U.S. in April on a seasonally adjusted annual rate. That number is the same as exactly 25 years ago. The takeaway is that investors shouldn't expect Ford to miraculously start to supercharge its unit growth in the years ahead, unless, of course, there is a surge in the global population that warrants the need for more vehicles being on the road. I wouldn't bet on it. There is one bright spot under Food's hood, though, which is the Pro segment. This commercial-focused operation put up 15% sales growth in 2024, with an operating margin of 13.5%. Management touts its ability to bring in recurring revenue for the business. Ford stock is cheap At under $11 per share, investors might be drawn to the current valuation. The stock trades at a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 8.1, which is a massive discount to the overall market. Consequently, investors can get a dividend yield of 5.9%. As enticing as that sounds, Ford typically won't command a multiple that's in line with the market just because of how capital-intensive and cyclical the company's operations are. And that dividend payout could take a hit in an economic downturn if revenue and earnings plummet. Ford is a stock that long-term investors should avoid.
