What is wrong

The driver's side air bag was improperly assembled and could cause the air bag warning light to illuminate from increased electrical resistance.

The risk

An increase in the electrical resistance might prevent the air bag from activating during a vehicle crash.

The fix

Dealers will inspect the air bag assembly wiring harness connector to determine if it contains a terminal holder. If it does not, one will be installed.
