Details |
On certain vehicles, the passenger seat Occupant Classification System may malfunction and could misinterpret a child seat as a small stature person, thereby not deactivating the passenger frontal airbag and not illuminating the "PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF" warning light. This could result in an unwarranted airbag deployment in a crash, increasing the risk of personal injury to a child located in the passenger seating position. Note: Within 50 meters of driving distance, the occupant classification system would automatically reevaluate the occupant classification and correct the issue. Correction: Dealers will verify the proper operation of the Occupant Classification System, and affect repairs if necessary. Additional information may be available on Transport Canada's website |
