The hazard
On certain trucks, the side curtain airbag inflators could be defective. As a result, the driver and/or passenger side curtain airbag inflator(s) could deploy without a crash. If this happens, parts could be propelled toward vehicle occupants.
An airbag inflator that ruptures can create a risk of injury.
What to do
General Motors will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your truck to a dealership to replace both side curtain airbag modules.
