The short version

General Motors LLC reported a problem with the seats. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

The affected vehicles received replacement seat base assemblies during repair service, but during the work, the seat position target bracket may not have been transferred from the old seat to the new one. Without the seat position target bracket, the air bag may deploy at a higher intensity than necessary.

WHY IT MATTERS

An air bag that deploys at a higher than intended level increases the risk of injury during a crash.

WHAT TO DO

GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicles and, if necessary, install a seat frame equipped with a target bracket, free of charge.
