## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the front passenger seat frame may damage the wires of the passenger presence sensor \(PPS\) module. If this occurs, the system may fail to detect an occupant in passenger seat and improperly suppress the front passenger airbag.  The damage could also cause the airbag fuse to short, disabling air bags and seatbelt pretensioners. These issues could increase the risk of injury to vehicle occupants in a crash where airbag and/or pretensioner deployment is warranted. Correction: Dealers will inspect wiring and repair as necessary, as well as apply protective anti\-abrasion tape. Note: If the passenger airbag is suppressed, the passenger airbag status indicator would indicate that the passenger airbag is off even when a passenger is sitting in the front passenger seat. In addition,  the "service airbag" message would be displayed in the driver information centre \(DIC\). This could also cause the cluster gauges and DIC alerts to intermittently turn off or not function properly.
