Corrective action traceability

if I have one corrective action for an issue and this issue caused two more issues, can I tag the last two CAR's to the initial CAR?

Answer:

If there is one cause to several nonconformities, you can use the same corrective action to address those nonconformities. If the corrective action cause nonconformities on the other part of the system, it would be good to make reference in new corrective actions to the initial corrective action.
