Details

What's wrong: The original steering wheel may have been replaced with a sport or m-sport steering wheel equipped with an inflator that can explode during deployment.

Why it matters: An inflator explosion may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants, resulting in serious injury or death.

The fix: Dealers will inspect and replace the driver's air bag module as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed August 30, 2024.
