On certain cars, the airbag system may not turn off the airbag when a child seat is used in the front passenger seat. In the event of a crash with an airbag deployment, this could create a risk of injury to a child. Correction: Dealers will replace the passenger seat cushion. Note: Child seats should not be used in the front passenger seat until the recall is completed.
On certain vehicles, electrostatic discharge, when combined with a broken clock spring and insufficient grounding of the steering components, could lead to an inadvertent deployment of the driver's frontal airbag. Unintended airbag deployment, in a non-warranted (non-impact) situation, could startle the driver, which could result in a crash causing injury and/or property damage. In some instances, inadvertent deployment could cause minor injuries to vehicle occupants. Correction: Dealers will add sufficient grounding to the steering components. Note: A broken clock spring would result in a driver airbag warning message appearing in the instrument cluster, as well as a red airbag warning lamp illuminating.
