Recall 2015220

The issue

On certain vehicles, in the event of a collision that warrants a deployment of the front passenger airbag, the deploying airbag could strike the passenger sun visor if it is in the down position. This could cause the sun visor to detach from its mounting bracket, potentially contacting an occupant, which would increase the risk of injury. Correction: Dealers will add a tether strap to the passenger sun visor.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, en cas de collision nécessitant le déploiement du coussin gonflable du passager avant, le coussin gonflable déployé pourrait entrer en contact avec le pare-soleil si celui-ci est en position abaissée. Cela pourrait causer le détachement du pare-soleil de son support de montage, ce qui pourrait heurter un occupant. Cela augmenterait les risques de blessures. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront ajouter une sangle d'attache sur le pare-soleil du passager.
