The Hazard!
Subject vehicles are equipped with side Curtain-Shield-Airbags (CSA) which deploy from the roof rails in the event of certain types of crashes.
Due to improper programing of the Airbag Sensor Assembly (airbag control module), there is a possibility that if the vehicle experiences a body roll motion at approximately 4 seconds after the ignition is turned to the “ON” position, the Airbag Sensor Assembly may erroneously detect a rollover and if it subsequently experiences another body roll motion soon thereafter, both of the CSAs and the seat belt pre-tensioners will be activated.
Unexpected activation of the CSAs could increase the risk of minor injury to the occupant.
What to do...
