Airbags Vehicle recall #24V288000 · 2024 · 5,761 vehicles
What's wrong: The head air bag inflator May fail at the weld joint, which can cause gas to leak from the inflator or result in an inflator rupture.
Why it matters: An inflator that ruptures May cause sharp metal fragments to enter or exit the vehicle, increasing the risk of injury. Additionally, an inflator that leaks gas May only partially inflate during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
The fix: Dealers will replace the head air bags, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 4, 2024.
