Details

What's wrong: The front air bags may not deploy during a crash if the air bag control unit (acu) loses communication with the front impact sensors.

Why it matters: Front air bags that do not deploy as intended can increase the risk of injury in a crash.

The fix: Dealers will update the acu software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 4, 2022.
