Stellantis Issues Recall for Over 250,000 Vehicles Due to Air Bag Defect
(Reuters) -Chrysler parent Stellantis is recalling 250,651 vehicles in the U.S. due to an improperly sealed side curtain air bag, the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said on Saturday.
The recall affects certain 2022-2025 Pacifica and Voyager vehicles.
An air bag with insufficient pressure retention increases the risk of ejection and injury during a crash, NHTSA said, adding that dealers will inspect and replace the side curtain air bags, as necessary free of charge.
In a statement, Stellantis said it is unaware of any injuries or accidents related to the defect, and urged customers to follow the instructions on their recall notices.
