Details

What's wrong: The front passenger seat may have been assembled with interference between internal parts that may cause the occupant classification system (ocs) sensor to incorrectly detect the occupant. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 208, "occupant crash protection."

Why it matters: Incorrect detection of an occupant may result in improper air bag deployment during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.

The fix: Dealers will inspect and repair the front passenger seat, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 2, 2022.
