## What is wrong

On certain vehicles operated in areas of heavy road salt usage, the front impact sensors may corrode between the sensor bushing and sensor bracket.  Over time, the corrosion may cause a crack to develop in the sensor case allowing water intrusion and short circuit of the sensor.  This could result in delayed deployment of the driver and passenger front airbags during a vehicle crash, increasing the risk of personal injuries or death.  Correction: Dealers will replace the front impact sensors.
