Recall 2013315

The issue

On certain vehicles, a defect in the supplemental restraint system could result in an inadvertent deployment of the front airbags. Unintended airbag deployment, in a non-warranted (non-impact) situation, could startle the driver, which could result in a vehicle crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. In some instances, inadvertent deployment could cause minor injuries to vehicle occupants. Correction: Dealers will install an electrical noise suppressor unit.

Dans certains cas, un déploiement non intentionnel pourrait causer des blessures mineures aux occupants du véhicule. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront poser un suppresseur de bruits électriques.
