Walkinshaw Group subsidiary Premoso is recalling several Chevrolet Silverado 2500 pickups locally remanufactured in right-hand drive to fix an airbag defect.
“Due to a manufacturing defect, the roof-rail airbag inflators located on the left and right roof rails above the headliner may experience inflator end cap separation or an inflator sidewall split,” the company says in its recall notice.
“If the end cap separates from the roof-rail airbag inflator or a sidewall rupture occurs, compressed gas and inflator components may be propelled into the vehicle cabin, increasing the risk of serious injury or death.”
