Issue

Issue:
Certain cars that were repaired under a previous airbag recall may have had an incorrect passenger-front airbag installed. As a result, the airbag may not unfold properly when it deploys. This could cause the airbag to tear or not to inflate properly in a crash.

Safety Risk:
An airbag that does not work properly could create an increased risk of injury in a crash.

Corrective Actions:
General Motors will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to inspect the passenger-front airbag assembly. It will be replaced if necessary.
