Buick driver side frontal air bag has a shorting bar which may intermittently contact the air bag terminals.
The short version
General Motors LLC reported a problem with the air bags. Here is what owners need to know.
The driver side frontal air bag has a shorting bar which may intermittently contact the air bag terminals.
If the bar and terminals are contacting each other at the time of a crash necessitating deployment of the driver's frontal airbag, that airbag will not deploy, increasing the driver's risk of injury.
General Motors will notify owners, and dealers will replace the steering wheel airbag coil, free of charge.
