## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the Supplementary Restraint System \(SRS\) threshold setting for the side impact sensor could be too sensitive.  If the vehicle ignition is on, and there was a strong, non\-vehicular collision impact to the lower body of the vehicle or if a door is shut with extreme force, the SRS ECU may interpret the input as a crash and command the seat airbag and/or side curtain airbag to deploy.  Unintended airbag deployment, in a non\-warranted \(non\-impact\) situation, could result in injury and increase the risk of a vehicle crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction:  Dealers will update the SRS software. Note: This recall is superseded by recall 2016\-032. Please see recall 2016\-032 for more information.
