What is wrong

On certain vehicles, a wrong diameter clamp may have been used to join the window airbag to the gas generator. In the event of a side impact collision, gas may escape from the joint between the two components and the window bag may not fully deploy.

What the dealer will do

Vehicles will be inspected and entire window bag will be replace if required.
