Recall Service & Dealership Highlights
Protect Air Bag Performance
NHTSA identifies two Air Bag recalls for certain 2016 Dodge Viper vehicles. In one, pinched driver frontal air bag wires may prevent the air bag from deploying properly in a crash, increasing injury risk. In the other, a defective vibration weld may allow the passenger air bag door to detach during deployment, also increasing the risk of injury. These concerns may not produce an obvious driving symptom, so waiting can leave an important safety system unresolved. Check the VIN promptly, and schedule service if an open recall applies. The manufacturer-defined remedies are performed at no charge by an authorized dealer.
