What Happened
The steering column control module is a critical part in your vehicle's air bag system. It's the brain that controls your driver's air bag deployment in a crash. In some 2023-2024 models, it might not have been welded properly.
Risk if Unfixed
If your air bag doesn't deploy in a crash, you're at higher risk of serious injury. This is a life-threatening situation, and you should address it as soon as possible.
Free Fix
Your authorized dealer will inspect the steering column control module and replace it if necessary, at no cost to you. You'll receive a notification letter with instructions on how to schedule the repair.
