This recall applies only to the above vehicles built from February 19, 2009 through February 25, 2009 (MDH 021910 through 022509).
IMPORTANT:
Many of the vehicles within the above build period have already been inspected or repaired and, therefore, have been excluded from this recall.
^ The Steering Column Control Module (SCCM) on about 350 of the above vehicles may have the squib connector wiring reversed for the driver airbag module. This could cause the driver side airbag not to deploy as intended and increase the risk of injury during a crash.
^ To correct this condition, the Steering Column Control Module build date code must be inspected on all vehicles. Those vehicles that have Steering Column Control Modules with a Julian date code of 0409, 0419, or 0429 must receive an additional inspection on the driver airbag squib wires. Steering Column Control Modules with suspect driver airbag squib wires must be replaced.
