Details

Issue: On certain vehicles, the passenger occupant detection system (PODS) may malfunction.

This could cause the airbag system to turn off the passenger-front airbag even when a passenger is seated.

Note: This problem would cause an error message to display on the instrument panel and a warning chime to sound.

The airbag indicator light would also display "passenger airbag off".

Safety Risk: An airbag that is turned off could increase the risk of injury to a passenger in a crash.

Corrective Actions: The company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a dealer to install cable ties on the wiring harness under the front passenger seat.
