On certain vehicles, the fasteners securing the airbag module to the steering wheel may not be installed to specification. In the event of crash warranting deployment of the driver's frontal airbag, the airbag may not function correctly, which could increase the risk of injury. Correction: Daimler Trucks of North America Service Facilities will inspect the fasteners and ensure they are tightened to specification.
