- [2015499](/recalls/tc/2015499.md), 2015-10-23: Airbag. On certain vehicles, the rear grab rail brackets may not have been manufactured to design specifications.

Correction: Dealers will replace the rear grab rail bracket with one that has felt applied to prevent a puncture of the side curtain airbag.
