Details

What's wrong: The roof-rail air bag (rrab) inflator end cap may detach from the inflator.

Why it matters: If the end cap separates from the inflator, the compressed gas will escape and the end cap can be propelled into the vehicle, increasing the risk of injury or a crash.

The fix: Gm will notify owners, and dealers will replace the rrab modules on the left and/or right side, free of charge. Interim owner notification letters were mailed on December 22, 2020.
