Seat Occupant Sensor: All Technical Service Bulletins
Recall 07V146000: Crash Protection Non-Compliance
MAKE/MODELS: MODEL/BUILD YEARS:
Pontiac/G6 2007
MANUFACTURER: General Motors Corp.
NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 07V146000 MFR'S REPORT DATE: March 28, 2007
COMPONENT: Air Bags: Frontal: Sensor/Control Module
POTENTIAL NUMBER OF UNITS AFFECTED: 359
SUMMARY:
Certain passenger vehicles fail to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 208, "Occupant Crash Protection." The
right front passenger seats in these vehicles are built with a passenger air bag sensing system. When tested with a representative, unrestrained six year old
child, the system is required to turn off the right front passenger's airbag. Interference during system calibration caused the seats to be out of
specification.
CONSEQUENCE:
This can increase the risk of injury to a child seat occupant during certain crash conditions.
REMEDY:
Dealers will replace the passenger sensing system free of charge. The recall will begin on April 17, 2007. Owners may contact Pontiac at
1-800-620-7668.
