Side Air Bag may Deploy Improperly

In the event of a vehicle crash, if a SABIC does not inflate as intended, there is an increased risk of injury to the rear seat occupant.

Summary

Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Ram 1500 Quad Cab trucks manufactured August 26, 2013, to August 8, 2015. The affected vehicles are equipped with side air bag inflatable curtains (SABIC) that may not fully overlap the C-pillars in the event of a vehicle crash. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 226, “Ejection Mitigation.”

Remedy

Chrysler will notify owners, dealers will inspect the right and left side air bag inflatable curtains (SABIC) for proper orientation and a foil patch will be installed on both sides of the headliner. One or both of the air bag inflatable curtains (SABIC) will be replaced if necessary. The recall began on October 7, 2015. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler’s number for this recall is R47.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

Service Procedure

A. Lower Headliner

WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) before performing this service procedure.

In Step 6 of this Service Procedure, you must disconnect and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the system capacitor to discharge before performing this procedure. This is the only sure way to disable the SRS. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment.

At no time should any source of electricity be permitted near the inflator on the back of a non-deployed airbag. When carrying a non-deployed airbag, the trim cover or airbag cushion side of the unit should be pointed away from the body to minimize injury in the event of an accidental deployment.

CAUTION: Hands should be clean or clean cloth gloves used when handling the headliner to avoid damage to the headliner.

Using a small flat-bladed tool, carefully open the two fastener covers located in the left Apillar trim panel (Figure 1).

Partially remove the left door seal.

As viewed through the opposite side door opening, inspect the anti-twist stripe on the inboard side for twisted cushions.

NOTE: Early builds have a black anti-twist stripe on both SABICs. Late builds have a red anti-twist stripe on the right side SABIC and a blue anti-twist stripe on the left side SABIC.

Vehicles that have the anti-twist stripe visible on one or both SABICs continue with Step 2 of this procedure (Figure 20 and 21).

Figure 20 – Passed Inspection: Anti-Twist Stripe Position
(Red or Blue Stripe for Late Builds)

Figure 21 – Passed Inspection: Anti-Twist Stripe Position
(Black Stripe for Early Builds)

Vehicles that do not have the anti-twist stripe visible on one or both SABICs, continue with Section C. Replace Side Airbag Inflatable Curtain (SABIC) (Figure 22 and 23).

Figure 22 – Failed Inspection: Anti-Twist Stripe Position
(Red or Blue Stripe for Late Builds)

Figure 23 – Failed Inspection: Anti-Twist Stripe Position
(Black Stripe for Early Builds)

Inspect the airbag ramp retaining clip on the right and left side SABIC modules. Ensure the airbag ramp retaining clip is fully engaged to the inner roof rail hole (Figure 24).

CAUTION: The airbag ramp retaining clip must be fully engaged to the roof rail hole on both sides.

Figure 24 – Airbag Ramp Position (Left Side Shown)

Inspect the airbag ramp position on the right and left side SABIC modules. The airbag ramp should be located below the airbag with the J-hook end in the down position and the wrap must not be torn.

Vehicles that do not have either airbag ramp out of position or the wrap is not completely torn on either side, continue with Section D. Install Foil Patches (Figure 25).

Figure 25 – Passed Inspection: Airbag Ramp and Wrap

Vehicles that have either airbag ramp out of position or the wrap is completely torn on either side, continue with Section C. Replace Side Airbag Inflatable Curtain’s (SABIC’s) (Figure 26).

Figure 26 – Failed Inspection: Airbag Ramp and Wrap (Left Side SABIC Shown)

C. Replace Side Airbag Inflatable Curtain (SABIC)

NOTE: Replace the specific SABIC that fails the inspections outlined in Section B. SABIC part numbers: 68161580AJ (right side SABIC) and 68161581AJ (left side SABIC).

NOTE: If a side airbag inflatable curtain is being removed, but has not been deployed, the headliner does not have to be removed from the passenger compartment. Lowering the headliner and resting it on the seat backs will allow enough clearance to remove the side airbag inflatable curtain from the vehicle. However, if either side airbag inflatable curtain has been deployed, the headliner must be removed from the passenger compartment and replaced with a new unit.

Remove the four bolts that secure the side airbag inflatable curtain to the inner roof rail (Figure 27).

Figure 31 – Inflator T-Tab

Connect the body wire harness electrical connector for the side airbag inflatable curtain to the connector receptacle at the back of the inflator. Be certain that each connector is fully engaged in its receptacle by listening carefully for a distinct, audible click as each connector latch snaps into place (Figure 29).

Align the two plastic push-in retainers that secure the side airbag inflatable curtain with the holes in the inner roof side rail and push it straight in until they are fully seated (Figure 29).
