Condition
General Motors has decided that a defect, which relates to motor vehicle safety, exists in certain 2007 GMC Acadia and Saturn Outlook vehicles. The
sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) in these vehicles, which controls the function of front airbags, may not operate properly. As a result, the front
airbags may fail to deploy in a frontal crash. Also, the airbag warning lamp on the instrument panel may fail to provide warning that the system is
inoperative.
In the event of a vehicle crash, this condition could increase the risk of injury to occupants in the front seat.
Correction
Dealers/retailers are to reprogram the SDM computer module.
