What is the danger

The correct deployment of the passenger airbag cannot be guaranteed if the airbag is activated below -15 ° C inside the vehicle. Due to faulty seams in the airbag’s protective cover in the dashboard, the component detached from the dashboard may break the windscreen. Glass fragments may damage the airbag, increasing the risk of injuries in the event of an accident.
