Recall Category: Air Bags, Steering – Driver’s Air Bag may not deploy in apparent contravention of US FMVSS 208

NHTSA Safety Notification 24V199000 reports the Steering Column Control Module may not be welded properly. If this defect occurs, it can prevent the Driver’s Air Bag from deploying in a crash. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of US Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 208, “Occupant Crash Protection.”

According to the NHTSA, an Air Bag that does not deploy in a crash, motor vehicle collision (“MVC”) or other impact event can cause consequential serious injury and/or life-changing results.
