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.","consequence":null,"remedy":null,"notes":null,"mfr_campaign":null,"part_number":null,"units":6,"completion":null,"do_not_drive":null,"park_outside":null,"notification":"Safety Mfr","french":{"component":"Coussin gonflable","notification":"Sécurité - fabricant","summary":"Sur certains véhicules, le système de classification de l'occupant du siège du passager pourrait mal fonctionner et prendre une personne de petit gabarit pour un siège de bébé; en conséquence, le système désactiverait le coussin gonflable frontal du passager et allumerait le voyant d'avertissement « PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF ». Cela pourrait empêcher le déploiement du coussin gonflable lors d'un accident où cela est nécessaire, ce qui augmenterait les risques de blessures. Remarque : Après que le véhicule ait parcouru au plus 50 m, le système de classification de l'occupant réévaluerait automatiquement le type d'occupant et corrigerait le problème.
