Medium riskHealth Canada

An official Health Canada notice concerns Fiat chrysler automobiles. On certain two-door coupe vehicles, in the event of a collision that warrants a deployment of the front passenger airbag, the deploying airbag could strike the passenger sun visor if it is in the down position. This could cause the sun visor to detach from its mounting bracket, potentially contacting an occupant, which would increase the risk of injury. Correction: Dealers will add a tether strap to the passenger sun visor. Note: This is an expansion of recall 2015267. Published 2016-07-26.
