NHTSA recall 15V590000
Air Bags · Chrysler (FCA US, LLC)
Details
What's wrong: The affected vehicles may be equipped with a passenger frontal air bag that was not folded properly during the assembly process. As a result, the air bag may not deploy as designed. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (fmvss) number 208, "occupant crash protection."
Why it matters: In the event of a crash, if the air bag does not inflate as designed, the front seat occupant is at an increased risk of injury.
The fix: Fiat will notify owners, and dealers will replace the passenger frontal air bag module, free of charge. The recall began on October 15, 2015.
