Details

On certain vehicles, the side-impact sensor wire harness in the driver-side front door may have been improperly routed.

If the wire harness was improperly routed, the window regulator could contact the harness when the window is fully lowered and, over time, chafe the harness insulation.

If the regulator penetrates the insulation, a short could occur in the side-impact sensor circuit, which could prevent the driver-side roof-rail airbag from deploying during a crash, potentially increasing the risk of injury to the seat occupant.

If this condition were present, the vehicle’s airbag warning light would illuminate for the duration of the ignition cycle.

Correction: Dealers will inspect the side impact sensor wiring in the front left doors.

If the condition is present, they will repair damaged wires, correct the clip orientation, and correct the wire routing.
