Details

What's wrong: The aluminum facia trim panel on the passenger supplemental restraint system (SRS) air bag door can detach during air bag deployment.

Why it matters: If this occurs during a vehicle crash, the vehicle occupants could be injured.

The fix: Dealers will replace the SRS air bag doors with a new door using a different adhesive to attach the panel.
