This condition relates to General Motors’ prior recall number 16V-651 (16007). In receiving service for the condition covered by this recall, some vehicles may not have received the new software for the sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) that is necessary to remedy the recall condition.
General Motors has decided that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in these vehicles. As GM stated in its Part 573 report filed in connection with recall number 16V-651 (16007), the original SDM software in these vehicles, which controls airbag and pretensioner deployment, contains a defect which may prevent the deployment of frontal airbags and pretensioners in certain rare circumstances. If the frontal airbags and seatbelt pretensioners do not deploy when required, there is an increased risk of injury to occupants in a crash.
