The official notice
Defect
On certain vehicles, the supplementary restraint system (SRS) Electronic Control Unit may cause airbag deployment when it is not necessary to protect front seat occupants. The seasors may detect a sudden deceleration as a result of an impact to the unercarriage or underbody of the vehicle and signal the airbags to deploy. Such an impact might occur if the car travelled over a curb or through a deep pothole at relatively high speed. A deployment of the airbags may result in abrasions to the hands, arms, or face of a properly positioned front seat occupant, or potentially more serious injury to an out of position occupant.
Safety Risk
No risk description available.
Remedy
SRS Electronic Control Unit will be replaced.
