Transport Canada lists: Colorado 2016 · Malibu 2016 · Canyon 2016

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the second stage of the driver frontal airbag may not deploy properly in certain high speed crashes. If the vehicle were to be involved in a high speed crash that triggers the second-stage deployment of the driver frontal airbag, the second stage of the inflator may not fill the airbag as completely and as quickly as designed, which could increase the risk of injury to the driver.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will replace the driver frontal airbag module.
