On certain vehicles, over time, moisture could enter the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) controller and could cause a fault in the airbag system. This could result in the airbag controller becoming inoperative, which would prevent the airbag(s) from deploying. Failure of an airbag to deploy during a crash (where deployment is warranted) could increase the risk of personal injury to the seat occupant. Correction: Dealers will replace the SRS control module. Note: This condition would cause the illumination of the SRS warning light. Note: This recall supersedes recall 2015-473. Vehicles repaired under the previous recall will require re-inspection and repair.
