Details

What's wrong: Dust may accumulate in the steering wheel clock spring, causing a disconnection in the electrical connection resulting in the driver's air bag not deploying as intended.

Why it matters: A disconnected driver's air bag can result in it not deploying, as intended, during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.

The fix: Dealers will replace the steering wheel clock spring, free of charge. Remedy parts are expected to become available in the 3rd quarter of 2023. An interim notification letter informing owners of the safety risk was mailed on July 6, 2022. Owner notification letters were mailed July 10, 2023.
