Details
What's wrong: On certain passenger vehicles, a component in the inflator of some passenger air bag modules was not welded properly.
Why it matters: As a result, the affected air bags may not deploy correctly in a crash, increasing the risk of injury to a front seat passenger.
The fix: Dealers will replace the passenger air bag module. Owner notification began April 5, 2002.
