What's wrong: General motors, LLC. (gm) is recalling certain 2022 Chevrolet Bolt Ev and Bolt Euv vehicles. One of the two fasteners that secure the driver's frontal air bag to the steering wheel may be missing or improperly tightened.

Why it matters: An improperly installed air bag may not deploy properly in a crash, increasing the risk of injury.

The fix: Dealers will inspect and replace as necessary, the driver-side air bag fasteners. If the fasteners cannot be tightened properly, the air bag assembly will be replaced. All repairs will be performed free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on July 29, 2021.
