Details

What's wrong: The affected vehicles have front seat-mounted side impact air bags whose inflator may rupture upon its deployment.

Why it matters: In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of one or both of the side impact air bags, the air bag's inflator may rupture and the air bag may not properly inflate. The rupture could cause metal fragments to strike the vehicle occupants, potentially resulting in serious injury or death.…

The fix: Gm will notify owners, and dealers will replace the side impact air bag modules, free of charge. The recall began on October 19, 2015.
