NHTSA recall 18V114000
Air Bags · Karma Automotive LLC
Details
What's wrong: In the event of a crash, the side curtain/head protection air bags may partially detach from the inflator during air bag deployment, affecting the performance of the air bags. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (fmvss) number 226, "ejection mitigation."
Why it matters: If the air bag are not fully connected to the inflator, the air bags may not inflate properly, increasing the risk of injury in the event of a crash.
The fix: Karma will notify owners, and dealers will install new side curtain/head protection air bags that have an additional clamp on the air bag to secure it to the inflator, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin April 17, 2018.
