The problem

The affected vehicles may have improperly sized terminal crimps on the seat side-airbag wiring harness which may cause the seat side-airbags to malfunction and illuminate the airbag warning light.
In the event of a crash necessitating airbag deployment the airbags may not operate as designed, increasing the risk of injury.
