AIR BAGS:FRONTAL:DRIVER SIDE:INFLATOR MODULE
An inflator explosion may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants, resulting in serious injury or death.
4 safety recall campaigns, 280 owner complaints filed with NHTSA.

An inflator explosion may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants, resulting in serious injury or death.
Unsecured side curtain air bags may not perform as intended, increasing the risk of injury.

A wiper motor that overheats increases the risk of a fire.
Two 2016 GMC ACADIAs can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
