What is wrong

Driver's side airbags do not meet certain requirements of fmvss 208.

The risk

Seat occupants relying on the installed airbag would notbe protected in the same manner as that of fmvss 208 compliant airbag, andcould have an increased risk of injury in an accident.

The fix

Replace the airbags with airbags that comply with fmvss 208.
