General Motors is recalling 9 units of the 2023 Chevrolet Equinox and 2023 GMC Terrain vehicles that are equipped with ventilated front passenger seats. The vehicle's Occupant Classification System may fail to automatically turn off the front passenger airbag when a small child or a child seat is detected. To fix this issue, dealers will replace the passenger presence system in affected vehicles at no cost to the owner.
If the front passenger airbag deploys during a crash while a child or infant is sitting in that seat, it significantly increases the risk of serious injury. The safety system is designed to disable the airbag for smaller occupants to prevent the force of the deployment from causing harm.
Free replacement of the passenger presence system.
