Recall 2000174

The issue

On certain vehicles, the side impact airbags may deploy unexpectedly, without a crash, as the vehicle is started or during normal driving. A driver or right front passenger in the proper driving or seating positions and using safety belts could receive minor injuries, such as bruising, from contact with a deploying side impact airbag. However, a driver or right front passenger that is too close to an inflating airbag could receive more serious injuries. Correction: Dealers will replace the driver and passenger side impact sensing modules.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, les sacs gonflables latéraux peuvent se déployer subitement, sans collision, lors du démarrage ou pendant la conduite normale du véhicule. Un conducteur ou un passager avant droit assis en position de conduite ou assis correctement et portant la ceinture de sécurité pourrait subir des blessures moins graves telles que des abrasions provenant du contact avec un sac gonflable latéral qui se déploie. Cependant, un conducteur ou un passager avant droit assis trop près d'un sac gonflable qui se déploie pourrait subit des blessure plus graves. Correction: Les concessionnaires doivent remplacer les modules de détection de collision latérale du conducteur et du passager.
