Details

What's wrong: These vehicles do not comply with the occupant protection requirements of fmvss no. 208, "occupant crash protection."

Why it matters: In the event of a vehicle crash, the right front passenger restraint systems may not meet the neck extension requirements.

The fix: Dealers will install a tray insert on the top of the passenger side of the instrument panel. The tray insert corrects the noncompliance.
