Issue: rnOn certain Mirage G4 sedans, the airbag control module may interpret vibrations caused by severe road conditions and/or driving on a flat tire as being a system fault. This could cause the airbag system to turn off. If this happens, the airbag warning light (SRS warning) would turn on and none of the vehicles' airbags would deploy in a crash.rnrnSafety Risk: rnAirbags that do not work in a crash could create an increased risk of injury. rn rnCorrective Actions: rnThe company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a dealership to update the airbag control unit software.
