What is wrong
Vehicle description: passenger vehicles equipped with a side impact air bag system. The air bag system has a lower side impact safing sensor threshold than specified. Because of this reduced threshold, there could be an inadvertent deployment of the side head curtain air bag with severe slamming of the door.
The risk
This could cause injury to an occupant.
The fix
Dealers will replace the inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module assembly.
Notes from the manufacturer
No vehicles have been sold to customers.
