Chevrolet welding on the passenger airbag inflator may fracture when the airbag is deployed, allowing some gas from the air bag inflator to vent behind the instrument panel, instead of into the air bag.
The short version
General Motors LLC reported a problem with the air bags. Here is what owners need to know.
Welding on the passenger airbag inflator may fracture when the airbag is deployed, allowing some gas from the air bag inflator to vent behind the instrument panel, instead of into the air bag.
As a result the air bag may not fully inflate, increasing the risk of injury.
General Motors will notify owners and dealers will replace the passenger air bag module, free of charge.
