2012, 2014 Mitsubishi Airbag Sensor Issue
CARS.COM — Vehicles affected by service bulletin:
- 2012 Mitsubishi I-MiEV
- 2014 Mitsubishi Mirage
The problem: The electrical resistance inside the impact sensor for the airbag system may have increased. As a result, abnormal communication may be detected, causing the supplemental restraint system warning light to illuminate. If a vehicle is involved in an accident when the SRS warning light is illuminated, frontal airbag deployment could be delayed and/or the side and curtain airbags may not deploy.
Corrective action: Dealers will replace the impact sensors for the SRS system.
