Recall 2001287

The issue

Certain sport utility vehicles. In the event of a severe frontal offset collision, sharp edges on the power steering pressure hose bracket could cut the front impact sensor wiring insulation causing a short circuit in the wiring. This could delay the deployment of the air bag system, increasing the risk of personal injury to the seat occupant. Correction: dealers will have the front impact sensor wire harness wrapped with protective insulation to prevent the possibility of sensor wiring damage during a severe crash..

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules utilitaires sport, en cas de collision frontale décentrée sévère, des arêtes vives sur le support du tuyau de pression de la servodirection peuvent couper l'isolation du câble du capteur d'impact avant et causer un court-circuit, ce qui pourrait retarder le déploiement des sacs gonflables et augmenter les risques de blessure aux occupants. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront envelopper le faisceau de câbles du capteur d'impact avant dans une gaine protectrice pour empêcher qu'il soit endommagé lors d'une collision sévère.
