Details

What's wrong: The passenger air bag fabric may have been manufactured incorrectly, which can cause the air bag not to deploy as intended.

Why it matters: Air bags that do not deploy as intended during a crash increase the risk of injury.

The fix: Dealers will replace the passenger air bag module, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 12, 2026.
