NHTSA recall 98V139000
Equipment · SAAB CARS USA, INC.
Details
What's wrong: The air bag alert label on the driver side visor was omitted. This does not conform to the requirements of fmvss no. 208, "occupant crash protection."
Why it matters: The vehicle occupant may not properly understand the operation of the air bag system and the need to use seat belts.
The fix: Owners will be provided with an alert label to be installed on the visible side of the driver's sun visor. If an owner so desires, their dealer can install the label for them.
