Product
Vehicles: CHRYSLER GRAND VOYAGER, CHRYSLER DODGE JOURNEY. Units affected: 2,592
Reason
It has been identified that due to corrosion there maybe a malfunction of the power supply within the Occupant Restraint Control (ORC) module. This could result in either an illuminated airbag warning lamp with the possibility of no airbag deployment in a crash necessitating airbag deployment or an inadvertent airbag deployment without an illuminated airbag warning lamp. Either of these conditions could increase the risk of a crash or injury. Remedy: Recall all affected vehicle to replace the Occupant Restraint Control module.
