THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIR BAG WAS IMPROPERLY ASSEMBLED AND COULD CAUSE THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT TO ILLUMINATE FROM INCREASED ELECTRICAL RESISTANCE. Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE AIR BAG ASSEMBLY WIRING HARNESS CONNECTOR TO DETERMINE IF IT CONTAINS A TERMINAL HOLDER. IF IT DOES NOT, ONE WILL BE INSTALLED.

THE BOLTS FASTENING THE REAR SUSPENSION TRAILING ARM TO THE CHASSIS MAY FAIL. IF ONE OF THESE BOLTS FAIL, THE TRAILING ARM MAY BECOME DETACHED ON ONE SIDE, ALLOWING THE WHEEL TO MOVE REARWARD OF ITS INTENDED POSITION. THIS COULD CHANGE THE HANDLING CHARACTERISTICS OF THE VEHICLE AND COULD LEAD TO LOSS OF CONTROL AND A CRASH WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING. CORRECTION: DEALERS WILL INSTALL IMPROVED BOLTS ON BOTH MOUNTING POSITIONS OF THE TRAILING ARMS.
NOTE: VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AIR BAGS. DEFECT: AFFECTED VEHICLES DO NOT HAVE A TERMINAL HOLDER FITTED TO THE FEMALE PORTION OF THE CONNECTOR WHICH CONNECTS THE CLOCK SPRING CONTACT ASSEMBLY TO THE AIR BAG WIRING ASSEMBLY. THIS COULD CAUSE THE ELECTRICAL RESISTANCE WITHIN THE TERMINAL CONNECTION TO INCREASE OVER TIME AND CAUSE THE SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (AIR BAG) WARNING LAMP TO ILLUMINATE. CORRECTION: A TERMINAL HOLDER WILL BE INSTALLED.
