Issue

Issue:
On certain vehicles, the passenger occupant detection system (ODS) may malfunction. This could cause the airbag system to turn off the passenger-front airbag even when a passenger is seated.

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 you to take your vehicle to a dealer to inspect the ODS sensor mat harness. It will be replaced if necessary.
