The issue
On certain vehicles, the trim of the instrument panel which covers the passenger frontal airbag may not have been manufactured to specification. This could affect proper deployment of the passenger frontal airbag in a crash (where deployment is warranted), which could increase the risk of injury to the front passenger occupant. Correction: Dealers will inspect, and if necessary, replace the instrument panel.
Description (français)
La garniture du tableau de bord qui recouvre le coussin gonflable du passager avant de certains véhicules pourrait ne pas avoir été fabriquée conformément aux spécifications. Cela pourrait affecter le déploiement du coussin gonflable avant du passager lors d'une collision (où son déploiement est nécessaire) et donc augmenter les risques de blessures au passager avant. Correction : Les concessionnaires doivent inspecter et remplacer le tableau de bord si nécessaire.
