- [2013191](/recalls/tc/2013191.md), 2013-06-04: Airbag. On certain vehicles, the passenger seat Occupant Classification System may malfunction and could misinterpret a small stature person as a child seat, thereby deactivating the passenger frontal airbag and illuminating the "PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF" warning light. This could result in the airbag not deploying when warranted in a crash, increasing the risk of personal injury.  Note: Within 50 meters of driving distance, the occupant classification system would automatically re\-evaluate the occupant classification and correct the issue. Correction: Dealers will verify the proper operation of the Occupant Classification System, and affect repairs if necessary.
- [2013190](/recalls/tc/2013190.md), 2013-06-03: Airbag. On certain vehicles, the passenger seat Occupant Classification System may malfunction and could misinterpret a child seat as a small stature person, thereby not deactivating the passenger frontal airbag and not illuminating the "PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF" warning light. This could result in an unwarranted airbag deployment in a crash, increasing the risk of personal injury to a child located in the passenger seating position.  Note: Within 50 meters of driving distance, the occupant classification system would automatically reevaluate the occupant classification and correct the issue. Correction: Dealers will verify the proper operation of the Occupant Classification System, and affect repairs if necessary.
