Details

What's wrong: The b-pillar impact sensors may have been misassembled, which can delay air bag deployment.

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

The fix: Dealers will inspect and replace the impact sensor(s), as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 11, 2026.
