Details
What's wrong: The air bag system has a lower side impact safing sensor threshold than specified. Because of this reduced threshold, there could be an inadvertent deployment of the side head curtain air bag with severe slamming of the door.
Why it matters: This could cause injury to an occupant.
The fix: Dealers will replace the inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module assembly.
