CONDITION SUMMARY

SITUATION: 

An issue has been identified on certain vehicles within the listed Affected Vehicle Range with the calibration of the Supplementary Restraint System (SRS). The calibration of the Restraints Control Module (RCM) does not provide the correct deployment signals in the event of a crash.

Vehicles may not meet some of the frontal airbag protection requirements in certain low speed impact scenarios. In the event of a vehicle crash, the Supplementary Restraint System may not provide the level of protection required to the driver and front passenger seat occupant, leading to an increased risk of injury.

ACTION: 

Retailers are required to HOLD  affected new vehicles that are within your control and refrain from releasing the vehicles for new vehicle sale  pending completion of the Diagnostic Procedure detailed in this Technical Bulletin. Unsold vehicles should have this performed as part of the Pre-Delivery Inspection (PDI) process but must  have it completed prior to vehicle handover to the customer.

Affected vehicles already in the hands of customers should be updated at the next available opportunity.

PARTS

No parts required.
