AIR BAGS: AIR BAG/RESTRAINT CONTROL MODULE
Deactivated air bags increase the risk of injury. Inadvertent deployment of the air bags increase the risk of a crash.
3 safety recall campaigns, 1 defect investigation (1 open), 3 owner complaints filed with NHTSA.
Complaints are reports from owners of this model year, not findings about any particular vehicle, and a model that sold in large numbers will collect more of them. They are counted here as filed; nothing is inferred from them.
Deactivated air bags increase the risk of injury. Inadvertent deployment of the air bags increase the risk of a crash.
In the event of a crash, if the windshield separates from the vehicle, it can increase the risk of injury.
If the air bag inflator initiator fails to ignite, the side air bag will not deploy, increasing the risk of injury in the event of a crash.
Two 2017 PORSCHE 911s 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.
