Issue
Issue:
An internal error in the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) could cause the airbag system to turn off. If this happens, the airbags would not deploy in a crash. Note: This problem would cause the airbag warning light to stay on in the instrument cluster.
Safety Risk:
Airbags that do not deploy in a crash could increase the risk of injury.
Corrective Actions:
The company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicles to a dealer to inspect the Occupant Restraint Controller. If fault codes are found, the ORC will be replaced. If no fault codes are present, the ORC software will be updated.
