## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the side impact airbags may deploy unexpectedly, without a crash, as the vehicle is started or during normal driving.  A driver or right front passenger in the proper driving or seating positions and using safety belts could receive minor injuries, such as bruising, from contact with a deploying side impact airbag.  However, a driver or right front passenger that is too close to an inflating airbag could receive more serious injuries.  Correction:  Dealers will replace the driver and passenger side impact sensing modules.
