Issue
On certain vehicles, the headlamps could rotate during a crash, which could cause the wiring to the front impact sensor to detach prior to a signal being recorded by the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC). This could result in non-deployment of airbags and pretensioners during a crash where deployment is warranted, which could increase the risk of injury to vehicle occupants. Correction: Dealers will modify the front impact sensor wiring harness and re-route and secure it.
