OLDSMOBILE ACHIEVA Recalls

The Oldsmobile Achieva has 1 recall affecting the 1996 model year, where the passenger airbag can snag on a reinforcement inside the dashboard during deployment, causing the bag to inflate beneath the dashboard pad rather than through its designed opening, and potentially lifting or fracturing the dashboard in the process. When this happens, the airbag does not deploy into the correct position to protect the front passenger, and broken dashboard material can become a hazard in the cabin during a crash.
