Air Bags Side/Window

What's wrong:
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2015 Buick LaCrosse, Cadillac XTS, Chevrolet Camaro, Equinox, Malibu, and GMC Terrain vehicles. The affected vehicles have front seat-mounted side impact air bags whose inflator may rupture upon its deployment.
Risk:

Additionally, if the air bag does not properly inflate, the driver or passenger is at an increased risk of injury.
What to do:
GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the side impact air bag modules, free of charge. The recall began on October 19, 2015.

How recall repairs work

  • Repairs are free at any franchised Chevrolet dealer — regardless of the vehicle's age or whether you bought it new.
  • Bring the NHTSA campaign number; it's printed on each recall above and on the sheet you can print here.
  • Call ahead: some recalls are announced before parts are available, and the dealer can tell you when yours are in.
  • Your VIN tells the dealer whether your exact vehicle is affected — the free check accepts one and never stores it.
